Wtf was I thinking? Design failure...

I was clicking through some harddisks and stumbled upon some old designs...
Here the first header of StrugglingBabes.com:





A mole with a fucking-machine and a dildo on wheels...

I still can see the humor of it but of course i never should have used it... although it was only up a few weeks....

Care to share you design-failures for a good laugh? or a tear?

That's funny but reminds me of Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate for some reason.

I was actually "inspired" after seeing a 2009 Mysteryland-poster (big outdoor dance-event in Holland)

Well, it all makes sense when you're stoned. LOL

But seriously this isn't bad at all! You could still use it for a Blog header or for some fun promotions like galleries. But the most important question is: did it improve or reduce sales?

(My first 'designs' are buried away somewhere, never to be seen. This would include my original oniine persona: a giant green talking penis! Haha!)

Bounce rate doesn't mean your site isn't laughable.

I could rank for long tail keywords "midget granny blonde black bitch porn" and have 2 visitors to my website, deliver what they searched for and most likely have a 0% bounce rate.

it proves NOTHING.

Yes it does....

see... you said it yourself...
Is your brain that small you don't get it? I care about SALES, EPC 100000000000x more than bounce rate.

Use your head, bounce rate DOES NOT prove your website design does not suck.

The analogy was you could have 2 visitors. It doesn't mean shit.

How were you planning to get sales with a 100% bounce-rate then?

When i started i had a 50% bounce-rate. With every design-change i litterally instantly improved my bounce-rate... so... there's a direct relation between design and bounce-rate.

The more people that click away from the site first page the less sales i make... very obviously... It's not about if you like the site-design, or if i like the site-design... it's about what i see in my statistics... And yes... i'm allready planning a new design... because i think 10% is getting a little bit high allready...
