You know your Website is soooo Web 1.0 When…

By marc • May 20th, 2008 • Category: General

We all have seen them…those websites that are still caught somewhere in the year 1999 - 2002. Here’s a checklist to make sure your site isn’t stuck in Web 1.0 world :)

1. Your website’s pages end in any of the following: .asp, .php3, .php4

2. You have a 30 second Flash Splash Page.

3. You have an all flash site that displays in a popup window.

4. There are only 20+ tables on each page, not one div…oh and no CSS.

5. You only know how to make a two column layout with frames.

6. Your site says “Best viewed with Internet Explorer 5.0″ somewhere on it and you really mean it.

7. The closest thing to AJAX is that text in the <blink> or <marquee> tags.

8. Trying to find the site in Google yields nothing since all of your pages contain a single image encompassing your layout and all content.

9. Your streaming video is that animated GIF on your home page.

10. Your idea of social networking is that guestbook CGI script.

    A coworker showed me a relatives site made for her business that fits #8. Ha! The person who she hired even left the title “Page Title” or whatever. Doh.
