LO5: Evaluation

Overall the I think website is well designed and has a constant house style. However,  I need to improve with the navigation of the website. To do this i'm going to put an overlay of text, on the hexagon nav box at the bottom. This allows the users to use the website faster and more efficient. This correction will work when the mouse hovers over a picture.  

I gave my testers clear instructions and told them to use their normal device to complete the task, from this I found that the developing needs to improve with regards to mobile devices. I will take out the information link what scrolls down the page and make the same improvements as above 


I need too improve on how I display information on some pages this isn't clear,  the key to this is to break down the text with pictures and split paragraphs up in to sections. This makes it easier for the user to read the text.

Finally  I need to improve the footer of the website, include social media links and contact information. This will make the website more professional and have better user interaction, as this the social links encourages user to keep up to date and interact on social media.

LO4: User testing




a) Navigation
To get my testers to test this, I gave them a test plan with precise instructions of how to navigate my website.


b) internal and external hyperlinks
In order to test for this, I made sure that my testers clicked on all internal and external links, this included social media and videos links and links to other pages within the website.

c) page load times
I made the website high quality images however I didn't overload it so this shouldn't be a problem.

d) performance of website when using different browsers
I made the testers use different browsers aswell as different divides while testing my website, if there was a problem they marked it on the test plan. 

e) consistency of house style
House style is important as it's a brand and you want people to remember the band so this a key element to the website.
