Where Web sites fail

Bruce Temkin, in his "Customer Experience Matters" blog, cites a Forrester Research study showing that Web sites fall down on the following criteria:

(A score of -2 was total failure.)

  • Is text legible? [-2.0]
  • Is the task flow efficient? [-1.5]
  • Does the site help users avoid and recover from errors? [-1.2]
  • Does the site present privacy and security policies in context?
  • Does the landing page(s) provide evidence that the user goals can be completed? [-0.9]
  • Are keyword-based searches comprehensive and precise? [-0.9]
  • Do menu categories immediately expose or describe their subcategories? [-0.5]
  • Do interactive elements behave as expected? [-0.4]

So how's your Web site doing?
