In my experience with advertising, ugly ads tend to sell better than ads with clean, sleek designs. The reasoning is that the ugly ads look more authentic. It seems like they aren't just advertising for some giant corporation. They're by the people, for the people.

Maybe that spills over into website design as well. Who knows. As a designer, though, I love aesthetics.
