Peer feedback on Websites

James Couleur:


Here is the feedback that was given to us all about our website.

WWW - great idea to have a pop up as soon as you go on the website, good promotion skills. The merchandise page in particular is very strong

EBI - some of the pages have basically one sentence of information on them (maybe they aren't finished???) Not too sure about the background and text, does it fit with James Couleur's image?

James Couleur: I like how the genre of music, indie, works well with the websites design and all of the images that have been taken. Although the pop up as you first enter the site is annoying, it is a good promotional strategy to get more people to like your page. The merchandise looks very professional and is not too much, it isn't too much for the fans to wear. To improve add links to the social media sites so fans can gain easier access. Not sure if some of the pages are unfinished but a lot of them look empty.

· Wording makes it seem as though it isn't run by Couleur. Say 'follow me' instead of 'follow us' etc.

· Pop ups are annoying

· Home page has very little content

· Sophisticated layout

WWW - Professional looking website, colour scheme, font, and background constant throughout, and fits within conventions.

EBI - Some of the pages have one sentence of information on them, are they finished

· WWW - The big photo on the homepage looks really cool and I love the integration with Twitter. Gallery includes lots of photos which is really good! Merchandise is cool too. The website fits the artists' genre and style.

· EBI - Tour dates need to be added.

James Couleur’s website is good however it’s really only the homepage that is completed. The other web pages are completely unfinished as there is no content on them whatsoever. However their theme is concurrent throughout the entire website which is by far the website’s best trait

Although this website has alot of images and merchandise it is extremely unfinished. What they have so far seems okay but there is so much that has not been done that it is very hard to analyse what isn't there. I do like the layout on the homepage and also the twitter feed down the side. This means people do not have to actually go on their twitter to keep up to date with him, I think it would look nice if they had a few edited photographs that are made to look like a professional photoshoot. They have also added a direct link to the blog which helps show the influence behind everything.

I think this website will be good when it is finished as what has been done is very good and of high quality. There are some high quality sections such as the merchandise but other parts that need to be finished. I think there needs to be more content as there isn’t much information about the artist which the fans may want to know. The fans would however appreciate the gallery as it has many pictures that have been planned and look professional.

what went well - the background picture is very creative and fits well with the layout. the live twitter feed is a very good idea and keeps fans up to date. the gallery is chock full of pictures which is brilliant. the merchandise is my favourite out of everyone's - very creative and clever.

even better if - there's a lot missing e.g. the teaser trailer isn't on the front page where it says it will be and the album and tour pages are empty.
