Default Re: What makes a great website?

There's no easy answer to this, however personally I would put down a great website to a number of factors:

1 Most importantly content: content should be useful, of interest, up to date and accurate.
2 Design: Simple but attractive
3 Navigation: easy to follow, structured and intuitive
4 Speed: should load quickly, even when using a dial up modem (these are potential customers too)
5 No gimmicks: too offputing
6 Trusted: a site that has or building a positive reputation
7 Adverts: or rather few adverts, it's the contet not the adverts thats attracted attention to the site, adverts should be subtle.

Lots of traffic and revenue is what defines a great site, the rest is marginal

Nope, it should also have some great promotion to get the traffic

Talking Re: What makes a great website?

Hello...

My view is when the Webmaster writes with real interest...this makes a good content website.

Thanks
