I imagine it's quite a challenge to make a homepage that holds alot of information but also presents the information in a way that is easy to sort through and visually interesting.
I think a tendency that is hard to avoid is getting carried away with one's homepage and putting way too much stuff so that it takes forever to download, as mentioned in "The Non-Designers Web Book." I will usually go to a different page if it takes awhile to download, making someone else's efforts to impress people wasted.
Important tips from the design handouts that have come to mind as I've been visualizing my groups Website are making sure pages download quickly, good use of graphic elements,consistentcy in style, and making sure the hierarchy of text if perfectly clear.
People are inundated with so much information, so it's important to present information in a way that is easy to follow with pictures and graphics to make the information even more accessible.
