Style-grey, black, and red. I like the dark style its conventional of rock music as rock is unique and mysterious

Search bar -The search bar is very clear in a medium-sized font. Having searched some things using the Kerrang search bar I have come to the conclusion that it has a good filter and takes you straight to the page that you have searched for. For instance i search for the band ‘Bullet for my valentine’ and it navigated me straight to a page that had information on cd releases, interviews and pictures.

Pictures- The middle left hand side of the page has a slide show that shows pictures of the latest band photographs and whats up coming such as tours and branding.

Magazine - I like that bi-weekly a new magazine comes out and it shows the front cover and eye-catching detail that would make their audience want to be the edition

Brand- I like that the brand is in a large font at the top of the page. This instantly indicates that this is the official page as the logo is easily recognisable.

Kerrang (dislikes)
Writing - Although there is not a lot that i particularly dislike on Kerrang’s website I certainly dislike the amount of writing that’s on the front page. Personally, i feel that as a consumer of the rock genre that too much writing can be to heavy and time-consuming on a rock website. Particularly when people only go on the websites really to check out pictures, downloadable content and gigs.

Subscription I don’t like that it doesn’t show the latestmagazine and only shows a picture that had been the same for a long time askingpeople to purchase a weekly subscription.

Q (Dislikes)
Features At the bottom of the page is relevant features that fit in with the website. However, they have been put in a black box that doesn’t fit in with the website style. Things like concert tickets are in this box which I feel should be more towards the top of the page.

Style Again, the style uses red, black, white and grey. Appears to be the style throughout the whole music field.

Politics i dislike the political section because I don’t feel that it is relevant to have a section of a music website dedicated to projects being shut down etc…

Advertisement it’s not so much irrelevant but it sometimes takes certain readers interest to a entirely different topic/website.

Lastest news Unusually I like then news feed on this website. It is clearly set out in columns, easy to use and is purely about bands.

Latest features, Latest news and latest tickets I like these three sections because of the way they are set out. Easy layout and accessable. The superlative ‘latest’ tells the audience that these are as recent as it gets.

Advertisements - They are very large and look almost as though they are categories on the website which can be confusing. Also, the fact that they are advertising for Q magazine seems bizarre because they may lose supporters to Q magazine.

to the ‘Mojo’ brand and comes before it. This is not only confusing as to whose website it is as the advertisement is for Q magazine, but appears unconventional of an online music magazine.
