As with beauty, a website sin is in the eye of the beholder. To be honest, I think all of these are reasons to avoid a website and the original author's intent was probably to use these six examples to spur website designers and web content writers to think in terms of the user experience. During one of the session at InternetWeekNY earlier this year the idea was floated that web marketers, being the people who are responsible for the concept behind the look and feel of a site, should constantly work with the site designers/programmers to ensure that while SEO is being addressed it is not at the sacrifice of user experience. It is nice to have a site that had a high PR and is in the top 10 sites for your keywords but if the site visitors have a bad experience they will not come back.
