1. Making a website is all about user-focused design. As the article shows, different websites are bad because they are not very user friendly. When someone goes to your website they do not care how it looks but they do care about getting information, making a donation, getting entertained, or being part of a community. Flanders says that the web designers misuse or over use things that can make your website better such as JavaScript, flash and text boxes.
2. I think that all of his points are important but one comes to mind in particular. I think that a person should be able to figure out what your website is all about in 4 seconds or less. If i am going to a website to find information I want to be able to figure it out quickly or else I will goto another site that has a better design and that shows the information off easier. Another important part of this article is when Flanders talks about heroin content. I think that is very important to get people not only goto your website once but keeping going to your website time and time again. Those are the two most important points in my opinion.
3. There are many important design factors for a webpage. It is important to have good things to say on your website becasue you want people to keep coming back. Another important thing to have is to be very user friendly, if it is hard to navigate you will lose people who could possible donate to your site. You need to be able to figue out what the website is all about at the first glance.
