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.

Vincent Flanders’ comments: There are also a lot of the usual type issues: mutli-colored, inconsistent use of color on text (H1 and H2 tags with same color), justified and flush-left text, etc.

Vincent Flanders’ comments: This website is where badly created, cheesy animated GIFs go to die.

This website is part of what I can “Cliche Web Design” or “1997 Web Design.” It would like to be a classic example of Mistake #6 from Biggest Mistakes in Web Design 1995-2015 — “Have you ever seen another web site? Really? Doesn’t look like it.“ Actually, I should have said, “Have you ever seen a hotel website before?

This may be the worst looking hotel website on the internet. I’ll leave it to you to try and find one worse.
