Personal websites have saturated the World Wide Web. Anyone with half a thought in their head can look towards the internet to express their opinions. With the vast amounts of free web hosts, what's to hold anyone back? A "my homepage" search will result in 7 million poorly made webpages with generic GIFs for anyone's viewing pleasure. Many of these sites rarely yield any hits. What these novice site designers fail to realize is they are not writers. Rather they write like they are talking with a friend. Well written content should flow like a book or novel, not as if they are in the midst of a conversation. So if this is what they enjoy, is it bad? Yes. With their extremely overused templates and WYSISYG HTML editor ready to go, they contrive a plan to make a personal website. Many used and abused templates have a subliminal reflex to close the window in a blink of an eye. Businesses creating a page that serves the whooping purpose of absolutely nothing. They have the resources but not the point. They have no idea what they're doing there, and just want a piece of the cake. Shilling of their products to those stumbling by who would never be interested. Then those that have the point, but lack the resources. Web design is hard work, especially in a largely information driven society. A poor choice here or there and the site is painful to use. Navigation is awkward. The color scheme burns fatigue into their eyes in minutes as they try to make things flashier and flashier and miss the simplicity that a site should have. Although some may have an interesting topic or service, chances are they are going to be joining an array of others with the same idea and with already created web content. They move forward and are rarely heard from again. Usually these fail due to lack of planning and ambition to see the project through. Having some type of barrier, will benefit business people by weeding out those who are not ready to take on this endeavor. A lot of people do not realize the hardwork involved in creating a good webpage. There is writing, coding, testing, drawing attention to the site, and most important, a good concept. In addition, there must be will power to see the project through to the end. Good website creation may take a year before seeing any type of measurable results and many fail prior to this. There are thousands of webpages out there with just random pet pictures, staunchly expressed opinions, and worthless services. This can be credited to people not following through on their web building projects. If someone is not up for this daunting task, then they should never start to begin with.
