Blog Week 4 -  Post One - Feb 14, 2019






Identify 3 potential problems with these websites:

Website #1:artcenter.org

I really enjoyed this website.  It has great pictures and it's broken in many parts.  I see the following improvements:

*  Adding music to each act so if a person clicks on the website and the artist, they could listen to their music.
*   The logo should be on each page and larger font.  It does have a lot going on, maybe too much going on, so you can get lost in the website.
*     I could not find the address to the center and I clicked on a few links until I finally found it.  This should be easier to find so people don't get frustrated.

Website #2 www.apple.com

I checked this website this is how I would improve this website:

*   The website is too dark.  It needs more light, to make it more appealing.  Maybe some music to give it a more exciting look.
*     Could not find a phone number.  I clicked on many links, even help link but I could not find the phone number.  There is a chat available during certain hours but no phone number to call.
*      It's too busy website.  Too many links and too much going on, so I just wanted to leave the website.  It's not designed very well and not appealing.

Choose 2 websites and identify what they have done right and how the branding impacted the website:  https://www.pennyjuice.com/

I liked this website as it flows.  The font is big and bold.  There are few pictures but they are big and the script is the same size.  I enjoy the colorful pictures.  The phone number is listed and address.  Branding is good and it gets to the point of what this website is about.  Very good branding and I really enjoyed it.

I liked this website as it has a video which I enjoyed and the website is not too busy like some of the other websites.  The branding is very good and it's easy to follow and find information.  I really do like videos on website and this one is quick and repeats itself.  The branding was very good as well.

Week 16 - Part 1 - Create a schedule on which platforms

Week 16 - Part 1 -Create a Schedule on which platforms I enjoyed creating and posting on facebook and Instagram.  I feel these two areas the most effective way to grow our store's audience.  I would post once a month any new jackets that we received and build a mailing list.  I feel that our audience would be best fit if they saw some of our merchandise if it flashed on Instagram and facebook. New Arrivals - once a month When a major sporting event happens such as World Series, Super Bowl -send out a post When a new Sport Season starts such as when baseball or football starts I would post on face book and Instagram I would also write a monthly blog about a subject that is related to a sporting event. I will grow our eclub so we can send out coupons and offers on birthdays. I feel that blogging, face book, Instagram and newsletters will work best with our jacket store.  We can do $100 a month on social media posts dividing among face book and some goo...
Week 13 - Part 1 I started putting in NFL sports jackets and found some websites and some physical stores that I studied: Fanatics.com/ncaa/Colorado - This is what came up with searched key words.  I then went to their website which is www.fanatics.com/ncaa/colorado This was more of a website than a physical store.  As soon as it came up, there was a large DISCOUNT SIGN and many pictures of apparel.  Their prices are good, its a huge company, so our little store would have to compete with those that physically go in to look around and want it that day for say a gift or to give their money to the little guy. I then found a store called Sportsfan in Denver Colorado.  This had no website nor facebook page.  Just on Bing showed addressed and hours so there is no advertising I could report on but it was a physical store and no web presence. Next, during my search, says a company called Fanzz Sports Apparel.  I clicked on their facebook and website a...
Week 12 - Part One- Using Yelp, Google My Business,  Bing I went ahead and created a Google My Business location site so now potential customers can write reviews, and I can answer them as well as get directions and hours of our location.  This is the site location for google my business: https://business.google.com/dashboard/l/14775070158524850291?hl=en I also went ahead and made a location for Yelp for Leather Direct Colorado and here is the link.  This way I can also answer reviews and customers can see hours of operation and location and what we do. https://www.yelp.com/biz/leather-direct-aurora-2 I also made an account for Bing, I just need to verify it when someone gets to the store tomorrow.  The store is in Colorado so I have to wait to call and get someone to do the code for me. Bing is great, as it shows at the top of search engines so this will be usefull tool as another social media site. Week 12 - Part Two - Discussion So I made a Yelp r...
