Usability
I have implemented the following principles in order to make my website.
- Search Bar at the top of every page
- Pages have the same layout.
- Links are easy to identify
- Clear titles and headers
I have used the above to make my site more user friendly and easy to navigate. I put in a google search bar which isn't really neccessary now with it being small but as it grows it would allow for people to find what they are looking for easier. I made the layout the same on all pages so people will be able to easily identify the site as mine. Links have also been made easy to identify to allow it easy to navigate. Lastly I have made clear titles and headers. I did this so viewers know what part of my sight they are on.
