GCSE MEDIA STUDIES - WHY SOME ONLINE NEWSPAPER WEBSITE LAYOUTS "SUCK"

Perhaps not the most articulate or charming description but an excellent resource for helping you design your own web page layout should this question come up in the exam.  Learn HOW NOT to design bad web pages and look at the best examples of on-line sites.

Thanks to Andy Rutledge for this resource.  Andy reckons:

"Online Newspapers are 99% Bad



Given the fact that online newspapers are supposed to attract huge numbers of readers and ad consumers, why is it that almost all of them are examples of the worst the web has to offer in the way of readability, design, layout, usability and information architecture? Even the best of them are relatively poor examples of these important factors."
