WEBSITE ANALYSIS James Grimley

FIRST PAGE Here is the first page you see when you enter the Alt-jay website. This page is very plain clearly outlining the bands name, underneath the name you can see their navigation bar which is unclear when first entering the site. Their twitter, Facebook and YouTube links are also located underneath the navigation bar. Although the website looks simple and plain I feel it is effective as it isn't complicated for the user to navigate around although some aspects may be unclear at first. I really like the design of the website as I feel it is very unique and it really draws my attention due to how simple but effective it is.

SUMMARY OF FIRST PAGE As you begin to scroll down the website the navigation bar also appears at the top of the web page. All sections on the navigation bar are thrown onto the one page and each button just takes you to the section on the page. The plain simple theme is kept throughout the page showing consistency on the website while also making it easy for the user to understand and navigate around.

NEWS PAGEThis is the new page where each section has a link to a separate page with more information on the section. Information on the page below includes the band ‘Ghost Poet’ which has been included into the line up of ALT-J’S tour. There is also a comments section on this page for their fans to give their views on the news. This way they can listen to fans feedback and further improve on certain aspects.

MUSIC PAGE This music page includes the album cover which is an interesting piece of abstract art which comes off as simple but very effective. They follow the same pattern and design throughout the website which I also find is effective and isn’t confusing. The track list is also alongside the album cover.
