Ugly sites do perform better. That’s because ugly site developers often concentrate more on their content, navigation, optimization and the ability to attract visitors, more than making the site ‘pretty’. It never hurts to have an attractive site but I’d put more effort into making your site one that first grabs attention and offers useful, unique content. The ‘prettiness’ can come later.

Many people think that the ugly sites are not worthy sites.But they don’t have an idea that only the content present in the site matters.

Yes,very true…An optimized and well-designed site does not perform well when it does not have unique, fresh and useful content..

I also believe that the old ugly sites have better content because during those times only well-researched, studied contents are being published in websites. With the right designing of the website, it will really be as attractive as the newly designed ones and have more substancial contents.

And to think that I would spend so much time trying to make my site be “pretty”. Your explanations make perfect sense. The content is what is the “lasting” feature that draws people in and back often. Thanks for a great post!
