Good and Bad Websites

Well I searched photographers websites just because I thought it would be easier to compare websites that have similar interests. I mean it wouldn't honestly be fair to compare site like dell to a general store website.

So here's the bad. http://www.howardsphotography.com/index.html
This website wasn't completely horrible but there are some things that I didn't like about it.

• The background of the site was very plan and kind of boring. It wasn't eye catching at all.
• The photos were too small and you weren't able to click on them to make them bigger so that you could see them better
• The color scheme and the arrangement of the text was horrible. It has green and purple text. (eww not professional looking) and the text is not in very good bullets or paragraphs.

The good website is http://www.lorei.com/index2.php

• This website has clear and bold headlines across the top with subtitles when you put the courser over them.
• When you choice a gallery to look at it has a large picture in the middle with smaller pictures on the sides that you can click on to see them large.
• You can contact this photographer by e-mail right on the site with any questions.
• You can also view and order prints online which is a great advantage to have in this business.
