People are busy trying to sell products or show what they have , but never think about the user. What the visitor is looking for and the Result low ROI. and the site owners keep guessing what wrong they have done ? Why their traffic is not increasing? Why after investing so much money on design and ads they are unable to pull the traffic to their sites, while a site with average look and feel is generating so much traffic and a higher pagerank.
