Good Website, Bad Website

Good Website: World Wildlife Fund
http://www.worldwildlife.org/home.html

This website is a very large website with numerous pages. The main bar is available on the top, always, on all pages and the same list of pages that expand on top are listed on the bottom of each page with links to those pages of the site. There is an icon of a panda with the WWF logo in the top left corner of every page, indicating that users can always return to the homepage. Links to other sites open in new tabs. Some graphics are used, but they are simple and not distracting to the content of the site.

Bad Website:
http://homeforprofits.com/web-resources/examples-of-very-bad-web-design-and-web-navigation/

In this page that is talking about bad web design, the page itself has some bad web design because many of the links do not open a new tab. Other than the links, this website is ok but it was the only one that I could find without stumbling upon that had this example to give of links that didn't open a new tab.
