Viewers want to know that they are getting up-to-date information, and lack of attention in removing old products will not install this faith. Create a timeline for your updates, and clean up any old promotions or information that is not current.

Always ensure you are giving meaningful feedback, as this is what creates the communication between a website and its visitors. For example, if an action taken by a visitor results in an error, do not simply display "error occurred."� Instead, provide a message that explains what happened and how the visitor can correct the error by taking a different action. Without this feedback, visitors are more likely to grow frustrated and just give up by leaving your website.
