Alright this post is not to generalize a trend but it is my personal vent. (that’s what this blog is for isn’t it?)
GreenWhite has been doing an excellent job of introducing us to a wealth of startups from Pakistan. I have been amazed at the passion of these startups and I know that the market is big enough for them to survive if they plan correctly. But one thing that has been bugging me for a while is the lack of proper User Interface design for these services.
Seriously, here is a list of few startups recently mentioned on GreenWhite and check out their UI.
These are just few examples from the recent posts at GreenWhite.
My advice to all these startups is simple: think of your users, make your site simple to use and learn from a thousand and one resources available online. OR better yet send me an email to review your site before you launch. I would be more than happy to give you my personal opinion on your user interface for FREE!
Also, I think it is very easy to igonore the user but really almost all of these startups depend heavily on their users as they are the driving force behind their success. So do pay attention to them.
If I get chance, inshaAllah, I will post a review of a few sites and how the user interface can be improved.

I assume you meant companies based in Pakistan not the websites owned by Pakistanis outside Pakistan. Otherwise there are websites with better UI owned by Pakistanis. Nilaam.pk is not from within Pakistan but owned by a Pakistani in Atlanta I believe
