Bob’s Review of web500
January 15, 2008 by Norman · Leave a Comment
1. Appearance (Use of Color, Graphics, and Readability). I thought your site was very professional looking. Colors were not overpowering and all the text is easy to read. I like the fact there are no distractions like blinking, flashing graphics, etc. which can make it hard to read the content.
SCORE: 5 – Professional (Highest)
2. Organization of Content (Ease of Navigation, Structure of Content, etc) Your organization and content is logically structured and easy to navigate. The site map is great help for getting around and your description of how the site is organized makes it very easy to use. The only thing I saw here were your links to external sites navigated away from your site. I’m not sure if this is really good or not. Some of the things I’ve read mentioned to have external links open in a new window, so the viewer can return to your site easily.
SCORE: 5 Professional
3. Scope (Breadth and depth of content) You have spent a lot of time and effort researching your content. Your site covers a broad range of topics and does a good job at presenting the right amount details about the topic to be very useful for the reader. It is obvious you have done you home work.
SCORE: 5 Professional
4. W3C Code Validation (HTML & CSS) One of the articles I read mentioned the need to be in compliance with http://www.w3.org/ standards. I’m not real sure how all that works, but W3C listed 42 XHTML errors, 1 CSS error and 2 CSS warnings. I did not experience any problems navigating around your site, but these errors may cause some sort problems for users with different browsers or search engines. I do not score this area, it is more of just an observation.
5. Overall, your site is very professionally done. Outstanding Job! I’m sure I’ll be returning.
