Graphic Design Website Design

Today I'll commence a sequence of articles comparing how a modern website called PissedConsumer.com developed by and for consumers' stacks up against the industry veteran Consumer Reports. So what will be the characteristic that may give victory to one of these websites?

If you load up the sites side by the side, the dissimilarities are quite startling. That is evident that Consumer Reports is designed by real experts and has got quite pleasant appearance. The website features a simple but clear design utilizing grey, white, blue, and a light touch of red. Here you may see a huge amount of various links and images that are completed with short articles. The appearance of Pissed Consumer is also pleasant as it is adorned with light red and white hues. However, their website does not have the same professional feel to it as Consumer Reports. This is partly due to the different advertisements all over their page (supplied by Google). Some developers do not consider the fact that too many links with no pictures will repulse and customers wouldn't want to deal with the site again. There are some sections that are quite helpful. The first section considerably eases the process of seeking for some recently added reviews and complaints. “Hot topics” are shown by the other section. They are demonstrated just in one word hyperlink. The only thing which I didn't like is the little font size utilized in the links which are located in hot topic section.

For the customer who visits Consumer Reports at the first time it is really simply to seek for some needed topics as they are strictly subdivided into some basic subject matters. The front page was also kept up to date data which was relevant to the newest published issue of Consumer Reports Magazine. The arrangement of Pissed Consumer is also quite appropriate but it has some obvious disadvantages. Remember what occurs when you visit a site that is fully heaped up with a huge amount of various information. Maybe you are a little confused. There is a broad range of topics placed on it in the right side of the front page, but there is no strict classification that makes it less efficient. Both websites comprise some perfect searching systems that make the navigation actions executed by users actually easy. There is a thought that Consumer Reports includes significantly greater amount of information but it is not right, actually. Pissed Consumer doesn't propose a proper interface that is why it seems to be less useful, but it really may boast of lots of unique and really useful information.

We can't definitely determine which website proposes more helpful information as they both cover nearly the same matters of the articles, but we can definitely announce that Consumer Report has got better arrangement. It means that consumer has an opportunity to find required information in considerably shorter terms. I would rather say that Pissed Consumer has a bit more drawbacks which gives a chance to Consumer Reports to be the best.
