Website Feedback

We was all given a task to feedback on each others websites so that we could see what went well and if there is anything we can improve to make it better. This then gives each group a chance to go back to their website and make it the best it can be. Here is the feedback we was given from the other groups:

What went well:
The website created by the Grace Starr group looks professional, sleek and contemporary. There are easy-to use links to Media, Press, bio (About Grace), and Merchandise; the site showcases tour promotion, photo-shoot, and teaser material for the upcoming album and music video. The layout is very professional, as is the photography, which accommodate conventions of Pop.

I love the overall girly look of the website and the layout is really cool. I strongly believe that the website fits the artist's image and genre.

The pictures are well placed and with the same style the throughout the website it gives off a professional feel. 

The background image, in fact all of them, are strong and clear ones which again shows the professionalism of the site. The transitions of the site are consistent and work well. The wide variety merchandise and quality of it is fantastic, as well as the sign up for newsletters, it shows that real thought has gone into the designing of the site.  

In conclusion the site itself is fantastic, the quality of images,merchandise and titles are fantastic, the hard work gone into it, is defiantly noticeable. 


Very professional, bubbly, pretty. Photos and background look really professional, looks convincingly like a singer's website, like the colour scheme and text. Easy to navigate around the website and very informative. I like it.


I liked how filled and lively the home page was with tour dates, album info, breaking news and teasers cover it which allows any fans to instantly get what they want from the website.

Grace Starr's Website is one of the best websites from the class. There is a good use of colours and i like the way the home page is not too crowded with lots of information. There is a consistent house style with the use of fonts and colours. I really like how they have added some news articles and a teaser trailer. Navigation is easy to use and clearly labelled. 


I feel that after reviewing this website there is very little weaknesses that I can pull out. I feel that they have gone above and beyond, and put in huge amounts of time to it. They have a great gallery with all the latest pictures uploaded, along with fine attention to detail. An example of this is taking pictures of Grace Starr (Charlotte) in the gym and saying how 'Grace Starr' has been seen in the gym, going down as section in their Press column. All this and more like teaser music videos makes the website great. Also the layout they used, has matched their artist.



This website is very professional and the creator has clearly understood the task at hand. It is very believable and the group have clearly taken inspiration from similar artist’s websites. The website is full of content and is very well presented. All aspects of the website work including links and music buttons. There is plenty of back story for the star and it will keep the fans informed and also make the star more relatable.



The Grace Starr website looks very professional, we are shown different things the artist is doing such as tour dates, red carpet appearances and interviews. People interested in the artist want to know and read these sort of things so it is important to include the on the website for easy access for the audience. We are also able to purchase thing from the website both merchandise and album download.


Nice Colour schemes, Look really professional, good consistency across the house styles on all pages of the website doesn't need a lot of work just a bit of polishing here and there.   


Even Better If:

The menu could be made a little bit bigger, On the 'About Grace' page the pictures would look better re arranged so that the page finishes where the bottom of the text is. Across all the pages the 'X' next to the official site title either needs to be made more obvious (made Bigger) or removed. also the Twitter button on the home page needs re-sizing, looks  a bit lost at the moment.

The Merchandise is not very appealing and i would not be encouracged to buy anything from it. 

To make the site better I think that they could have links to social media sites on the home screen with icons. 


Overall it is a very well done website it could use a few more photos of the star but that's about all.

   
If you did a gallery of photos in different areas/scenes, etc. The big white space to the left of everything else on the website gets a bit annoying. 

Information on the 'press' page is all down one side,making the page rather long,possibly put some of the articles on the opposite side, unless they are down one side for the purpose of the image being visible. There could be less images on the 'about Grace' as they are already on the 'media' page. The Iphone on the merchandise page could you possibly remove the small lines around the iPhone?

 Spelling errors should be checked on the 'About Grace' page. Other than that, the website is flawless.
