Website First Draft

For the second part of my ancillary task I chose to create a website, to do so I used the web program wix, using it as a template to help put together and create my magazine website. After looking at and researching into magazine websites such as Vogue, Grazia and Company, I have a clear knowledge of what conventions are typically seen on this type of media product and was therefore able to put together my own website based around my magazine, making sure my website fit in with my billboard and magazine, showing my target audience that all products are part of a package. The task was to create 2 hyperlinked pages, however I have created 3 pages, a home page that includes a button linked to the 'hot topics' page, where all of the stories are shown. I have also created a 'fashion' page that shows different vintage style clothing and where you can purchase them from, I have chosen clothing from high street shops at high street prices because with my target audience being teenagers and students they can not afford expensive clothing and therefore it will appeal to them. I have used my masthead and magazine quote in my website, this makes my products recognisable as a package and shows to the audience that they are all part of one. Overall I am pleased with the first draft of my website, initially I found wix hard to use but I have now picked up more skills and can use the different tools that are available on the web program. I will now gain feedback on my product and see what can be improved, I would like to experiment more with my website to make it look more professional but also different to make it stand out against other media products.
