Today I will be sharing some of those websites which are plain in nature but has grabbed the customers at a large level. Many of you must be familiar with them for sure. It is believed that to have the high traffic on your website you must have the catchy design so that viewer can at once pause on your site. It is important to have good and quality material on your website because if don’t serve humanity then it would be useless to have the catchy and beautiful designs. Matter or the written material which is available on site has an equal importance. In this post I have compiled those websites which are massively simple but beautiful and plain in nature and let me know if you agree with my views or not by leaving a comment regarding this post!

The home page is the most important page on your website because it’s generally a visitor’s first impression of your company or organization. Some of the reasons people leave your site are irritating sound files, offensive material, hard to read text, long download times and over large images. Creating a professional looking website is time consuming and hard work. Getting all the information together for it, formatting text, choosing color schemes etc., take a great deal of skill to get right. So what’s the point in going to all that trouble when the majority of people who stumble upon your home page by chance, just click away instead of browsing through your pages. The home page should arouse a certain curiosity and encourage the person who found it to continue browsing your site. It should show clearly, usually through navigation bars, what can be found and all main pages should be accessible from any one page.
