2. Website 1: Carphone Warehouse

3. Review Name of website: Carphone Warehouse Purpose
To advertise and sell mobile phones and equipment. To also offer contacts.
Features
Navigation buttons will change colour when hovered over and will also drop down a sub menu of sister pages.
E-commerce facilities
Social media links
Lots of high end graphics/ videos to represent products
Search bar element
Consistent colour scheme used throughout
Action buttons
Internal and external links
Effectiveness of its features
e.g. allowing users to customise the website format so that people with visual difficulties can enlarge the text.
Features look really good and are effectively interactive however the text size is extremely small and there is no setting to allow this to be changed (size/ colour) therefore people with visual difficulties would not be able to make good use of the site.
Strengths
Navigation buttons will change colour when hovered over and will also drop down a sub menu of sister pages so the top of the page is not too busy.
Search bar to make searching easy and very convenient for the user.
Weaknesses
No customisation available for the website therefore does not target all of it customers and therefore not fulfilling its purpose.
Lots of scrolling required to get from top to bottom when they could have inserted anchors to make the usability much easier and quicker.

4. Website two: Netflix

5. Review Name of website: Carphone Warehouse Purpose
To deliver a television network with members in over 50 countries enjoying more than 100 million hours of TV shows and movies per day, including original series, documentaries and feature films at a cost.
Features
Security signup
E-commerce facilities
Lots of high end graphics/ videos to represent and play movies/ programmes.
Search bar element
Consistent colour scheme used throughout
Action buttons
Stop, play and pause features
Effectiveness of its features
e.g. allowing users to customise the website format so that people with visual difficulties can enlarge the text.
Again with this website, features look really good and are effectively interactive however the text size is extremely small on some parts of the page and there is no setting to allow this to be changed (size/ colour) therefore people with visual difficulties would not be able to make good use of the site either.
Strengths
Pages are not to busy and only have a few action buttons therefore its very easy to navigate around the sight.
Instructions are given and payment plans all explained so its very clear to all users.
Tall heading on login page, giving the site a real professional and modern feel.
Weaknesses
No customisation available for the website therefore does not target all of it customers and therefore not fulfilling its purpose.
On some pages there is lots of white space which slows down the download speed.
