2nd page - website

-> The 2nd page of the website was done not as a one article, but as many different sections. There is enough information to attract an audience to the article, but not enough to understand it without reading further. Which is very important, if the readers will get all the necessary information from the headlines they will not continue to read.
-> I've used the 2nd page to introduce the events that are happening, also crimes, and a lot of advertising. When doing the research I could see that websites rely on adverts a lot, the adverts vary from banks to entertainment.
-> I challenged the codes and conventions by making the website not too colorful and also not putting just photos in it. I've tried to add as much information as I could. I wanted to make the page interesting, I want the audience to be able to understand that anyone could find an interesting bit of information to them, because not everyone has the same taste and sam interests. 
-> I always asked for feedback because I think it's very important, if not the most important thing. BY getting feedback I am able  to make the work better and improve it continuously. Feedback given must always be considered because it's other people who will be reading the website, I need to hear what they have to say about it.
-> I spoke about  lot of different topics on my website to make it more interesting, I didn't want to make it dull by only talking about economy or business. The reason for that is that when I did my research I realized that local newspapers and websites are also a bit entertaining, people like o know serious things but others read to relax, and they don't want to read about something depressing all the time.
-> I've added horoscopes box because I don't know how many news,newspapers or other informational websites I have seen, but I am pretty sue that all of them contained horoscope information. I know that it's not the most important part of the website, but people read it, I read it as well, so I thought it's worth putting it onto the 2nd page
-> All the photos were taken by me. I used some old photos that I took few years ago as well, I've tried to use interesting colorful photos to make the website look eye-catching

Development of website 2nd page

1st page. Website. Final.

-> The website page is colourful and with lots of photos - it makes it eye catching.
-> The top of the website is taken from the actual newspaper, it's in black and white so stands out very well, audience always sees the name of the newspaper/website - also even though the newspaper is in black and white the website still suits the newspaper because it doesn't have too many colours. I've tried to make it look not too formal but also not too 'funky'
-> I left the background white because I wanted it to reflect the newspaper, which is local but also about business and economics, the website looks serious
-> The red line at the top is like a short cut - readers are able to see the main features and information that it in the website
-> Black line shows most recent and important news, it stand out very well which emphasizes the importance of the information
-> The website is divided into couple different sections, world news, local news, opinions and also advertisements. When doing my research I saw that all website promote something. My adverts are charity, helpline, bank and also air company. All of these help people somehow and it's useful. I've used air company because people like business men usually fly to different places so I decided that it would be a good addition to the website. All of the adverts are very simple, and in websites you are able to click on it and it takes you to the actual websites for it. The adverts must be simple in the website because if it;s very complex than it would be too much, because websites are colourful itself
-> This post contains photos that I took myself, because the other were taken from the internet. I've tried to use photos of people as much as I could because I realized that in websites photos are usually like that.
-> Local news section is big because the website is of a local newspaper. This will suit my audience because people reading this paper usually will be living in Basildon and Area, it will be important for them to know what's happening in their area. I've used photo of Basildon so that the readers would recognize the place straight away.
->In world news section I've placed a photo of a sea in winter, I took it when I was on holiday in Lithuania, I've used it to show that this section is about other places, and not England.
-> I decided to add section with opinions, because I think it's very important to make the reader feel that their opinions matter and that it's important for them to take part in what's happening in their community. Audience must see the newspaper and website helpful and interesting part of Basildon and Area.
-> I've used red colour to separate sections in order to make it clear when the one ends and another starts. I think it's very eye catching colour and is a good addition to the website.
