Common Usability Mistakes in Web Design
Here's a great list of usability problems that websites commonly face.
- Tiny Clickable Areas — basic common sense can help eliminate this
- Pagination used for the Wrong Purpose — too many items on a page
- Duplicating Page Titles — make them unique for optimization
- Content that is Difficult to Scan — good content and hierarchy of importance is a must
- No Way to Get In Touch — people DO want to talk
- No Way to Search — people DO search
Too Much Functionality that Requires Registration — (ut oh... we may be in jeopardy of implementing this one)- Old Permalinks Pointing Nowhere
- Long Registration Forms — kill all the extra questions and fields you really don't need
