Similar to quality however a lot more official and legal. Web standards are the formal, non-propriety technical specifications that define and describe aspects of the World Wide Web. Without these, the internet which hosts every website in the world would certainly be in disarray.

objectivity
Web designs should always be produced without the influence of personal opinions. What one person doesn’t like about a design may actually benefit the target audience of the proposed website. Feelings and personal taste should always be put aside so that the true purpose of the brief can be fulfilled.

quality
Every website needs to be of a high quality. If it doesn’t blow a user away likely chance is that they will not return. Web designs need to amp up the quality if they are expecting amped up traffic figures and conversion statistics. When it comes to web design quality trumps quantity every time.
