We have the same opinion about Carrie and her site. I actually be friend her in FB and followed her on twitter. Its just, I liked her style and liked her more when I read her bio that she was once a band vocalist of a Filipino rock band (and I am a Filipino).

Absolutely right. It’s just asking what they want to see or what they want to read. With this kind of approach, for sure, the effectiveness of your blog design and post will be in a higher level. It will also make your audience feel so important coz you ask them what they want and deliver it to them. Great approach!

Absolutely agree. All is about the 1st impression, if we failed on the 1st sight we almost lose everything. They wont come back for the 2nd visit.

Thanks Nick for the nice sharing again:)

Design is more than just aesthetics, it is what our whole universe is all about.

A well laid out site says the designer has put some thought into what he’s doing.

I would never stay in one in the US, I’m actually located in Chicago.
In Europe the mindset is slightly different, which I think makes hostels a better experience.

I guess it all depends where you go also.
The hostels, with currency exchange) had cost about $5-10/night. And that says even more, as Europe tends to be more expensive than here.

I think design is very important. Content is what users come back to read and learn things from but with the right design in hand you get the right feel and the content and everything flows together much nicer.

It makes for a wonderful experience that really does make a lasting impression and that’s what you want. If someone doesn’t come back to your blog/site because of how it looks they could be missing the exact content they’re looking for.

If they do come back because of the design though, you’d better have some killer content in place to keep them consistent visitors.

Design is great and makes everything run smoother and I feel the same, with blogs, it’s just not “as” appreciated as regular websites are.

Blake @ Online Marketing Review » It really is impossible. It’s hard not to judge items by what you see. And personally, I don’t think that it is wrong. I think that it’s normal and that we should simply understand it, embrace it, and design accordingly.

Blake @ Online Marketing Review » I completely agree. Those people who are successful with poor designs are not exceptions to the rule. They could be even more successful if they had a great looking design.
