Apple.com is an example of a good website. Straight up. its simplistic, gets straight to the point and has a large image that focuses you to the middle, with an appealing high quality photo.
The website follows Simons Law, a law that has negative blank space which makes you focus on the difference contrasting colours. The text is bold and short, and gets straight to the point. The site is straight forward on what its theme is about, there is a top navigation bar that links to other related pages. The site also has no flashing, crappy, amateur gifs to catch your attention; because the site is already eyecatching enough. This site will appeal to all ages. The site being simplistic, makes you notice the font and images better, because most of the page is white, the navigation, image andfonts stand out more, making the user more calm and not' "overstressed"The "Ipad" gets you sucked into the site even mre, and by simply clicking on the image, you get a link to the info page about the Ipad, making it simple, and not needing over 9000 links just to get to the info area. With these reasons, I declare that Apple.com is a good, appealing, modern site.
Muchmusic.com would be my example of a bad webite because its too busy and makes your eye travel too much- this is because of the ads, pictures, and background that make it confusing.
. Instead of having a blank space as the border. instead there ended up being another image, even more detailed making you focus more on it than the actual point of the site. There is limited information on the site, even if it was a short sentence it would still be better than 2 or 3 phrases scattered around the site. There is a lot of flashing and gifs around making you focus less on the actual point of the site. This site would only appeal to the older youth, not to any adults, or elderly, meaning the site is limited to only teen users. Many pop ups happen while going trough the navigation bar above, which I consider annoying. There are many different colours used, unlike the good website reference Apple.com, which only uses greyscale simple colours which make images stand out. Instead, the images are blended in the background, because the whole site stands out, not the images and readings you want them to notice. However, considering this site is targeted more to the youth of today, making it, "hip" this site would be appealing to teenagers. However, relating this site to Apple.com, this site would be considered less desirable to the internet users.
