Nine Rules for Web Startups

I am describing nine rules for website designing, Hope these will be useful for all web developers.

1: Be Narrow:
Most website try to do too many things that it become too difficult to manage and understand, so always try to do smallest things that are potentially useful.
2: Be Different: There are a lot of people who will be thinking same as you are, so always try to do different from others.
3: Be Casual: Flickr enables personal publishing among millions of folks who would never consider themselves personal publishers—they're just sharing pictures with friends and family, a casual activity. Casual games are huge (Now this is not the era of hobbyist web or the professional web) even Skype also provide casual conversation.
4: Be Picky: You must give space to others if something is not going right, false negatives are usually better than false positives. One of Google's biggest strengths—and sources of frustration for outsiders.
5: Be User-Centric: User experience is everything.
6: Be Self Centered: Create something does not exist in this world, be a user o0f your own product.
7: Be Greedy It's always good to have options. One of the best ways to do that is to have income.
8: Be Tiny:
Acquisitions are much easier if they're small. And small acquisitions are possible if valuations are kept low from the get go.
9: Be Balanced: You must be balanced in each and every situation as you have to give a lot of commitment to acquire something, but this will not be for always.
