I'm not one to spend hours and hours surfing the 'Net' looking at pretty graphics. I want to get information as quickly as possible and then log off. I don't have a lot of time for 'welcome pages' that don't tell you anything, and then link to a second page that doesn't tell you much either. Or sites where you spend ages waiting for useless banners and graphics to download. I like sites that are user friendly and the first page tells you what the site is all about, and has plain links to the rest of the site. I have tried to select sites that fit my criteria.
