    1 big mistake when ppl building websites of any niche:
    When you build website, do this website from visitor perspective, not from yours as owner of that site. The reason for this is that you need to know what would your visitors expect from your site, not your great feeling about your new site.

    This step is pointing us to make our website more visitor friendly.

    Good tip, keep menus clear and make sure visitors always have another page to view :)

    an example can be seen below...

    "Simialr Threads" this will ensure you get more impressions from each visit and thus improves the chance of a signup or a conversion!

    Another important point is that the website must be Search Engine friendly.

    This!! People will not wait around for your slow shared host to load (speaking in generalities here).

    The other reverse psychology is that there are people who don't really know what they want, and if it so happened that you triggered a need and people find it in your site, then you are a trail blazer, and your site would be successful.

    We should not be dictated by visitors' preference at all times. We should be guided by our passion and interests. Let's follow our heart.

    Yes that is pretty obvious and I think the first teaching for a web designer is always this ,we learn this in our first class of layout planning as UI.

    It's simple. Build the site for the users, not for the SE ;)

    Site should be aimed at viewers, visitors. It shall be simple to click, understand, and navigate. Quality content and consistent upgrading may have very good effect.
