A simple set of rules for primer sequence design is as follows
... The optimum length of a primer depends upon its (A+T) content, and the Tm. Apart from the Tm, a prime consideration is that the primers should be complex enough so that the likelihood of annealing to sequences other than the chosen target is very low. For example, there is a ¼ chance of finding an A ...
