I would ad to the "Make it Simple" tip, that the Golden Triangle be used in the design of the page. This is direction of visual scanning by most users, starting at the top left, moving to the right, and then moving diagonally to the visible bottom right of the page (without need to scroll). The other very overlooked aspect is that customers are more likelly to buy a product if the website is written in the Language they speak. If you are marketing in the US, there is a very large Spanish speaking market. This is a very good summary of what to do to increase your conversions.

Some ad agencies go too far and go a bit overboard with flash. A Creative Director will critique design but a Media Director will want to get to the facts quickly. I have been tinkering with making our site more "engine-friendly" and appreciate these suggestions! Ours is a consulting business, so keeping "trust" in mind when writing content has helped us.
