High
traffic sites represent good examples of
combining effective website design with effective
marketing (both online and offline). Whether
these examples are directly applicable to you
depends on whether the same design and marketing
issues arise in your marketing niche. (For instance,
the decisions made a highly trafficked search
engine portal site may not all be relevant to
a mid-size commercial product site.)
