The Daily Sucker - Current examples of bad web design

The Daily Sucker

Sites featured in articles like Worst Websites of 2010 often are redesigned, which explains why some sites mentioned in my articles don't match their current look. The Daily Sucker features current examples of bad web design which haven't been fixed (yet).

If you see a site that you think sucks, email the URL to me. No personal pages (personal pages are supposed to reflect the individual's personality and artistic freedom) or web site designers (it would look like a conflict of interest), or others of their ilk.

If I think there's some merit to your selection, I may post it along with some commentary. If you know of a site that qualifies, let me know.

Virginia Stucco – Still Sucking the Big One After 10 Years – Tuesday, June 14, 2011

June 13th, 2011 11:11 pm by Vincent Flanders

Vincent Flanders’ comments: Periodically, I’ll take a look at an old Daily Sucker to see if it’s been fixed. Often, they’re fixed. Often, bad elements are just shuffled around like deck chairs on the Titanic. I originally featured Virginia Stucco almost 10 years ago when it had 17, 159 visitors. Ten years later there have been 29,451 visitors. If you just saw 29,451, you wouldn’t know if that number were good or bad. It’s bad because it means a little over 3.5 people per day visited the site. On the other hand, if they all bought something, it might not be bad. As I often say, “It depends.”

Here’s a side-by-side comparison of the 2001 and 2011 versions of the site. You can see that, for the most part, they rearranged deck chairs.
