Over the past few years, we have gotten used to certain standards in web design. In order to make a lasting impression on your visitors, you need to build experiences that go beyond those of a plain, usable website. This does not mean usability has become any less important. It just takes on a different role in web design, now forming the basis for a great user experience for examples of great usability website.
Developing a website goes beyond the simple usability. "Experience" needs also the right attire.... Appearance. Ease of use is not the only thing important, aesthetics counts too!
