Bad vs. Good

Bad:

http://www.angelfire.com/super/badwebs/

This is labeled as a bad website because of how the title is animated and that you can barely read it on the website. There are many flaws to the website with the background being too busy for the person to concentrate on what’s on the website itself. There are way too many animations for this website. There are way too many advertisements that are not useful for this website.

Good:

http://www.yahoo.com/

This is labeled as a good website because everything is placed evenly. It is also the same font size except the important things that they want to advertise. Yahoo used their white space up evenly and didn’t putt useless stuff in just to fill space. They have everything in the right places and they show consistency in their way of creating this website. All the links are evenly distributed and are working right. There are more words because it’s like a news website and there are some picture’s for the understanding of the words.

Website Readability


One website that I feel that shows examples of easy-to-read text would be my uncle’s website click here to view for yourself, Sol Yoga. I think that there are pictures placed in appropriate places along with text to follow. This is a well rounded and put together website about his yoga company. There are links at the top of the page that can take you to eleven different pages, which keep you informed about Sol Yoga. On his website he even has picture links to keep his company socially connected to websites like FaceBook Twitter and Yelp. I also feel like the color schemes are well chosen and well put together it’s not to over whelming for the eye.

I also came across a website that I felt does not show examples of easy-to-read text it’s a website about Evangel Cathedral. I think that this website is really overwhelming to the eye, everything is moving around and hard to focus on what you’re trying to look at and read. When you click the links on the left side once you enter the website it takes a minute to actually open the links I also feel that this website is not suitable for the general topic of the actual website.
