What's Poppin

Today's bad website simply tickles our collective funny bone.  It is a website for an entertainment company, which rents party equipment.

The hero image, by all accounts, is neither 'entertaining' or suggestive of a party.  Unless we've been doing it all wrong?

Diversified Engineering

For once, we agree with the company name matching its website, but not in a good way.  It's "diverse" alright...most of the nav options lead to completely different-looking pages.  Completely!  There's no consistency other than mediocrity.

"Developement" Tools has many links, some of which offer products to put into a shopping cart, which is an HTTP 404 error of its own. We did find a 'corporate timeline' on one page, that ends at 2003.  

Final determination?  This isn't a website...it's a tombstone.

JILco

There's a whole lotta hacking going on under the covers of this old rudimentary website.   Hundreds of hidden links - PAGES of them.  Here are some highlights:

Delter Machine

There's something to be said for companies that have been in business for a long time.  Today's bad website comes from a company that began in 1981.  Several years before the Internet as we know it began to be used as an advertising tool via websites.

So as news of this newfangled "Inter Web" spread, this company got itself a website.  Then who knows what happened, because there are keywords of:  "faith, fear, power, killers, praying, prayer, pray, dominion, through, wall, faith, victory, victorious, Barberton, Ohio, 44203, house, god, God, Built, Unbroken, Curse, Curses, maximize, maximized, man, men, manhood, husband, shame, guilt, saved, save, salvation, failures, final, circumsion, heart, testimony, testimonies, heal, healing, healed, Lord, Jesus, savior, inherit, deliverance, deliver, overcome, wiles, lies, satan, devil, armor, Christ, cross, gospel, defeat".  Sheesh.

Dexol Industries

This is going to be quick.  

Apparently, the entire site was made of Flash, and we all know what that means...

No website.  Shrug.
