Reacting to feed back.

I have gone through the feedback and had a look on what I need to change for the website as it need to be correct and needs to be good for the user. The main problem was the social media not working. So to solve this problem I will need to change the coding on it so it will take you straight to the website and quickly. Another big problem was the time it took to load to page and the main reason for this problem was the host of the website as it was very slow another reason there was things that took along time to load so to make this better I would need to change the writing or coding on the website to make it go faster on different browsers. One big problem on the website was the box not showing up as it didn't pop out or fade in. So to solve this problem I will need to change the coding so then the box actually pops out. Another problem with the website is that the writing was really hard to see, so to solve this problem I will need to change the writing colour or put a box underneath the writing to make it stand out.

Positive feedback
I had a lot of positive feedback with my website and some of the users say that the look of my website is very appealing and the website has stuck to the house style well. Some of the users said that my website shows information easily and they navigate around my website with ease as it all on one page. The information is easy to read and they can see that it relates to an older target audience. The user said that the colour stands out and makes the website better. The social media icons on the website look really good and stand out also the contact page worked very well and the user was able to contact the person who ran the organization. The user said that all the links worked but the best part was how the page fazed into the writing and all fazed in together. The other bit that worked very well was the photos are all very high quality.

My opinion
As my website was made I saw that the website will be very appealing however I didn't now about the function of the website. So when I finished coding and making the website I decided to test it. The results was good however I would change the shade of yellow used in the house style. I would like to change the load time on my website so it improves the speed and the quality.


Functionality
The functionality of this website is to provide customers with a clear explanation on what the bees do and why we should save the bees. This website should give the user a brief explanation why do we need bees and how important they are to the world. The functionality of the website is good and everything works correctly but to improve the functionality I would make sure that the pictures mean something and pop out at you when it is clicked on and has a brief explanation.

Navigation
The navigation for this website works correctly as the social media works well and the writing is all hyperlinked. The scrowling on the website all works correctly and the pictures all over lap when moving the mouse in a certain way. The pages are all correctly navigated and go to correct destination.

House style
The house style of this website is themed yellow and black as it goes with the bee colour another house style is the font which is all ok and matches all other text and the colour of the text this is so the text can be clearly read and the user has no problem looking at my text. The pictures all relate to each other as they all are about nature and represents bees.

I will test the following by trying all browsers so then I can give it a proper test and pick out all the fault.

Construction of website
In my website I have sections that cover over each photo which does work as the photos do run really smoothly. When going onto a different page the writing slowly appears into it and is done correctly. So far my website works at it full potential.

Navigation
The navigation for my website all work as when I click on a certain word it takes me to the section in the website it should take me. The scrolling up and down works really good as each slide goes to the right section. I went and asked a user if the navigation makes sense and they agreed that it did so then I will not have any problems.

External and internal hyperlinks
In my website I have currently one hyperlink which leads the person to a different bee website. This hyperlink works really well as it takes the person to the correct destination and other website.
There is a live link in the other website which shows a field full off bees.

Page load time
altogether it takes 15 seconds to load my website. That's on a laptop
I have just checked on the PC and it took 3 seconds on the PC.


Performance of the website when using different browsers
Google Chrome runs really smoothly and doesn't have any problems.
Firefox was a bit slow but not that bad as the when on the website it run smoothly but loading it took some time.
Safari didn't really work well but I still got on the website and still was able to use it but it was very slow.


House style
My house style has been very well planned and has been done all the way through the website as it has the same colours and same fonts also the pictures used are all bee related and it stays like that. All the way through the website I have decided to make bee puns so then it makes the website way more fun.

Is it still aimed at the target audience
The website is currently aimed at an older audience as it has older information and doesn't include any cartoon like characters or silly pictures as it is all mature. The writing will be read by a older audience.


Test plan



Browser Test on Android


Browser test for Ios

Results of user testing


In my user testing I have realized that on different browsers the website works differently so for examples safari worked very well but then IE didn't work very well and I can not do anything to solve the problem. Sometimes the animation for the box would not work as I had my friend said that it didn't work also the link for the social media didn't work so I would need to look into that and ty and sort things out. Another problem I have bumped into is the website load time so for example I would need to change the host of website to make it faster.

My website will be hosted on wix and the reason for this is that it is an easy hosting website to use. As my website will be viewed by many. This will help the bee website get bigger so then people can view the website with ease.

This is my Link for the website I have made for this Unit

Revenue
 One way I would make revenue is by advertising other things on my website. For example like other companies and outside centre and new activity places or even shops.
