- Personalized features. Currency, language, country specific deals, taxes, or delivery options are changed based on user's location.
- Registering provides value to users. For example a "Free Trial" button communicates a clear benefit, but a "Register" button doesn't. Unnecessary registration is avoided.
- Transparent pricing. Prices are clearly displayed. There are no hidden costs or surprises in the terms.
- Pages don't refresh automatically. Users can get confused if new content is uploaded suddenly, for example on news websites.
- Sample content. For example there is a sample newsletter next to a newsletter sign up form.

APRIL 17, 2013 4:40 PM \ LEAVE A COMMENT \ MYCLEAN When MyClean started 3 years ago, we did everything the hard way. The founders of our company are all non-technical – our CEO is a former derivatives salesman – and other founders had backgrounds in marketing and finance. We outsourced design and development for a cleaning website that allows customers to book appointments online, semi-automates scheduling, and emails cleaners their schedule. Until we hired a product manager a few months ago, there wasn’t a single full-time employee or founder who knew how to write HTML or open a .PSD. Using this simple platform from 3 years ago – the design hasn’t even been changed since then – we’ve bootstrapped our business into something to be proud of. Long story short – we hustled, cleaned and persevered.
Things were never easy. When our server crashed, we called our out-sourced developer in Canada and prayed he wasn’t at the movies with his girlfriend. When
