Unit 28 - D2

Possible Improvments to My Site

Accessibility - The website is very easy to access, the links are in obvious places and are large enough to be noticed, allowing people to get around the site with ease.

Ease of Use - Although the site is very easy to use, certain areas could be changed to improve the site. For example, the 'buttons' to reach other pages are currently just hyperlinked text, it would be better if they were proper buttons, as this would make their purpose more obvious.

Functionality - The website functions well, but it is very simplistic, it could be improved by adding more text or pictures related to the film club to make the site more appealing.

User Environments, Links, Navigation - The only links on the site are the hyperlinks used for navigation, as mentioned earlier, these could be improved by making them look more professional.

Content - The site does contain trailers from films with an age rating of 12 and 15, this may be inappropriate for some users and could be solved by changing the films on offer to suit a younger audience. The site could be improved with the addition of pictures as there is currently a lot of empty space on some of the pages.

Check against user requirements - Currently, there is no system in place that checks that the user is old enough to join the film club, the site could be improved by adding coding that will prevent people below or above a certain age threshold from joining.
