I will make hyperlinks for the website so the viewers would be able to view the other pages of the website. I will check to see if they work by previewing the website and clicking on the hyperlinks. I’m going to make my hyperlinks in the same place on every page. I’m going to put it at the bottom of the web pages so that it encourages the reader to read the page first before going back to the homepage.
For my subheadings, I will underline them and make the writing bigger. This will make it stand out and the audience would know what the following information is about.
All the information I am going to use on the website was given to me. On each page, I will try to use some writing and some pictures on each page so it doesn’t look boring.
On some of my pages, I am going to fill in the text box with a dark orange colour so the text, which is a light colour, would stand out.
On my ‘Festival Events’ page, I will make the word ‘free’ for the events that are free bold so the audience would be attracted to it and encouraged to read on.
Finally, I will test all the hyperlinks to see if they work and make sure my website does exactly what the user wants. I will show that my hyperlinks work by using annotated screen shots. I will also use a testing table to show my tests.
I made the page bigger because I couldn’t fit in all of the information in on one of my pages.
