Brittany Beerse: Excercise twoThis is a featured page

I’m unsure of where to start with this review, but a coach of mine once said it is best to sandwich a review allowing things to open and close positively- so I’ll try my best. The 5- Points to Safer Driving site’s home page makes it easy to find links to the different DMV’s in the state of Virginia. Also all of these links do work, and lead start to the respective homepages. However, this site looks as though a twelve year old made it. The links are scattered, in plain text, and are formatted to where they appear to be sentences. To make the site flow better why not have a single link that says, Drivers safety courses. By doing this is would relieve the access distraction on the home page. Also this would allow the opportunity to provide a brief summary of each class on the Drivers safety courses page, and a chance to provide a corresponding link that says more information/ sign up. By doing this it saves people time from having to go back to the homepage each time if they happen to click the wrong link (although that’s the least of this site’s problems). Not only would this new format save time, but it may also stop a stroke. Once an unsuspecting individual clicks on the link for a class they will find themselves bombarded with spam type flashing. Immediately I, also an unsuspecting bystander, thought one of two things, Professor Collier has tricked me into going to some gag site, and secondly thank God I’m twenty one and not seventy five. I don’t see how anyone can find anything on this site after being hypnotized by Rainbow Brights color spectrum. Clearly this site was constructed by several different people, however, because as I continued through the links I noticed some quite useful. Although all the pages looked very basic the links on the main page lead to useful summaries about different areas of Virginia, also the link below the image of the girl was a clever way to lead to something useful. Also having an online course link on an image of a computer creates another point of recognition for the reader. Overall I think this website needs a lot of work. There are to many distractions, and frankly if I was not required to review this website in detail I would have immediately closed the browser and gone to the DMV to sign up.
