Website Users’ Top Five Frustrations

Heads up: this content is over 5 years old, so some information may be out of date.

The B2B ratings and reviews firm Clutch asked website users to rate their biggest annoyances with browsing and site navigation. Nearly two-thirds (63 percent) said they would permanently abandon a site if it was unreliable, a UX issue that’s typically signified by broken links or pages with “404-error” messages. Slow page-loading speed also rated high on the list, especially for mobile users looking for immediate access to information.
