I also wouldn’t feel comfortable naming the sites that I think are badly designed but I would love to name the sites that take this kind of advice on board to create a better blog.

Why not have some “before and after” shots of sites that start off bad but end up good? A bit like when someone loses weight and shows how great they look now.

Oh, I almost forgot to say that this is a great post

Oh, come on John, you cannot call your blog a “junkyard”, there is nothing wrong with it

You know .. I would like to crate such a project, but in the end I don’t think anyone would benefit from it. It’s NEGATIVE energy in the end and I think that it’s better to advise them personally (when I am approached) than to shame them. Many people are not designers, I cannot require all of them to know good design

Welcome to the blog, John and best of luck with your project

Ooops, better go check my own site now you mention those things. I think i'm OK but best check. Maybe you should start a name and shame campaign to prevent bad blog designs? John Blackmore's last blog post..Good Web Hosting is the Foundation of a Good Website
