> their website is really ugly

I don't think it's ugly -- just dated. Isn't it weird that mentally we trust software less if they have a dated website? Shouldn't it be the opposite? (As in: a dated website means this software is mature and tested?)

The problem with dated websites is that they have the appearance of being thrown on the web in 10 minutes and forgotten about rather than being mature and tested.

If the software is well supported and maintained than the website should be too.

It could also mean the software is abandoned and hasn't received security updates in a long time.

Isn't the mentality more to do with insecure sites having dated websites with misleading links etc. Unless its a known company a dated/poor website often flags warnings for me about security, support for the product and more.
