CM1008 COURSEWORK II
Web Techniques
http://www.imagesemantics.com/
The website has a very professional layout to it, with a good colour scheme and easy/simple navigation bar on the far right.
It has a permanent frame at the top which consists of links to the five more important links which are used more often.
“About Us” – “Products and Services” – “News” – “Careers” – “Customers”
The site stays the same, keeping its layout from the front page to the very last page, this gives off a professional style to it.
Image Sematics only offer one other version of their site, which is in Japanese.
http://www.xrce.xerox.com/
A key feature I noticed straight away on this site was the option of having it in five different language formats. Majority of websites on the World Wide Web tend to be English (or the local language in that country).
This allows it to offer its product/service to a bigger audience.
Thats what ive got so far.

you mention nothing about the format/layout of the xerox site.
why does it allow bigger audience? May seem like stating the obvious but it still needs stating.
name some examples of other multi lanaguage sites and whther they are successful.
you say the imagesemantics site is very proffesional, what do you mean by this, how is it 'professional'?
why is the colour scheme good? what is 'good' about it? and why is that 'good'?

Plenty of time then.
Refer to web useability - http://www.useit.org
How do the sites fair for accessibility - turn the images off - can you still navigate the site?
How do the sites rank on search engines.
Look at the code - is it well formed?
Use of client side technologies such as Javascript/Flash/streaming media - is there any and if so, does it detract from the purpose of the site?
What is the purpose of the site? B2C, B2B, C2C?
