"On the Internet, it's survival of the easiest.... Give users a good experience and they're apt to turn into frequent and loyal customers. But ... it's easy to turn to another supplier in the face of even a minor hiccup. Only if a site is extremely easy to use will anybody bother staying around."
- Jakob Nielsen

"The web is the ultimate customer-empowering environment. He or she who clicks the mouse gets to decide everything. It is so easy to go elsewhere; all the competitors in the world are but a mouseclick away."
- Jakob Nielsen

"You know from your own experience as a Web user that paying attention to usability means less frustration and more satisfaction for your visitors, and a better chance that you'll see them again."
- Steve Krug

Studies show that for every dollar a company invests to increase usability, it receives $10-$100 in benefits, and wins customer satisfaction and loyalty.

"80% of the mistakes you will make in information architecture can be caught if you bring in a great usability expert from the beginning."
- Roger Black

"To dismiss basic contexts such as link colours, page layouts, navigation systems, and visual hierarchy as 'boring' or 'pedestrian' is akin to laughing at a car's steering wheel as unimaginative."
- Jeffrey Veen

"There's one thing more painful that learning from experience, and that is not learning from experience."

Still not convinced? Here are some more expert opinions:

"Although browsing or comparison-shopping tops the list of reasons for online shopping cart abandonment, the study found that just 21 per cent of e-shoppers surveyed mentioned it. Shipping costs account for 17 per cent of people aborting their purchases. Poorly designed Web sites and privacy concerns also cause e-shoppers to ditch their carts."
- NFO CF Group

Every click is an opportunity to lose prospects.
- Bryan Eisenberg

It helps to bring in an objective outsider to give the business some perspective. Remain impartial about internal politics or who suggested past ideas. The business needs an unbiased verdict, without the emotional attachment it has invested in its own efforts.
- Bryan Eisenberg

Directories - such as Yahoo and Looksmart - often reject sites with broken links. Studies show that 71% of Web sites have at least 1 bad link.
- Netmechanic
