Tips For A Quality Site

1. Publish High Quality Content: The idea is to not over do it with the updates, this site stated the most successful businesses only post around 24 posts a year.

2. Create Effortless, Predictable Navigation: This is pretty self explanatory, don't make your website too difficult to browse through.

3. Use quality graphics and photos, including Flash elements and photo slideshows. Poor photography can lead to less trust in what you're offering. Remember: a picture is worth 1,000 words: No one likes a plain website filled with text, a picture can help separate mass text amounts and also give the reader a visual look into your website intentions.

All the sites I posted as my Top 5 are great with the easy navigation aspect and high quality graphics and photos for the most part; however, they aren't experts when it comes to always publishing quality content. On the other hand, all of these websites are pretty successful and these recommendations were specifically targeting small businesses.
