Journal 8

Ugly Website: www.xoxohth.com
Attractive Website: www.nbc.com

The ugly website, www.xoxohth.com, does not work visually and rhetorically because it is far too simple. There are roughly four different colors used for the font but the color blue is mostly used for the links. The website is a forum and it's original purpose was for legitimate advice for school. Although there is some good advice on the forum, it is unfortunately full of a lot of junk. What also adds to the websites lack of appeal is a lack of images.

The attractive website, www.nbc.com, is appealing because of all of the different components of the website. At the moment they have palm trees in the background and it only adds to the appeal. The website has many features including: links to full episodes, many images of people on the channel, ads, TV schedules, etc.The website uses colors well. There aren't random colors everywhere, there is a uniformity throughout the website.
