    What is the first thing to make you leave a website?

    For me if the site is slow or has too much junk on it I bail.

    What makes you leave a site just because of the design or function?

      Yep, too slow. Ugly cluttered backgrounds. Terrible non-contrasting text colors where they expect people to read. Crap like that.

          I usually leave when I get that notification from Avast that a trojan is being installed... Really ruins an otherwise great experience.

                    loud music or videos that auto play... I have webmasters coming to me from time to time with 'ratio issues' sometimes and i'll load up their site and they have some hardcore shit playing loud in the background or live cam models doing shout outs at full volume. I picture people surfing our sites at night, maybe listening to a bit of music, checking out some porn while they listen discretely to some Phil Collins.. then BLAM! loud screaming and groaning waking up the whole house hold... click and close ;)

                    People like control when they are surfing, give them that and they will stay for a bit!


                    ...yeah loading slow and banner farms are bad too.

                      Forgot about that, any videos that have auto load or music and I'm gone almost every time.

                      There should be laws against this lol.

                                    a lot of good reasons listed here

                                    my biggest pet peeve with site would have to be the light colored text on a light colored background! I mean SHIT a person with perfect eyesight would have problems with those, my eyes suck and it gives me an instant headache

                                          Slow loading. And if it's really slow I click the red 'x' before it even finishes opening.
                                          If the index page is that slow, what's the point in hanging around and trying to open other pages?

                                            Clicking something that doesn't work. Especially if they are selling me something.

                                              If it's some site I know has been around a bit, I'll do a "Clean Computer" and keep going.

                                                  It usually helps if the website has a link you can click on - makes it much easier to leave!

                                                              I have the attention span of a gnat. If a site takes more than a few seconds to load... I'm out. Auto-playing music also makes me run for the hills. I also hit the road if a site looks like it was designed by a five-year-old (comic sans) or is too cluttered.

                                                              In summation: I only like sites that don't annoy me.
