Final review of the project.


PIC1 Purpose:
This page was built for my uncle who is a bee keeper. He follows small village farmer's markets to sell honey. This is still his side job but he dreams that he could make a leaving of it in the future. The main product highlighted on this website is honey but there are other products like wax, pollen and the future derivatives of these products. It would be beneficial for customers to learn not only about products but also bees and how they are cared of. Website will help to reach more customers and attract potential customers that are not always going to farmer's markets.




Steps:
The target audience for this website would be health conscious individuals that focus on good food quality. So I did the research and visited many sites that contain health cautious products. I tried to learn what type of content is being displayed as well as how graphics and fonts are being used. Ultimately I settled on a clean design that is consistent across pages.

PIC2 Defense:
I chose to build a simple website that is based on the template created from the first page for consistency. One of the main design choices was to use the background pattern. I had to experiment with that for some time to make sure that content is going to be visible without a solid background. I tried to choose colors that are close to natural colors around bees. I also had to experiment with fonts but at the and I decided to use a simple Arial font type. This type is familiar to users and easy to read.

Home - This is the intro page that contains information about my uncles business. It is using a standard template similar to other pages.

Products - This page still uses the template, but I chose to introduce an additional table to make sure that products and pricing information is aligned.

Why Honey? - This page contains information about the benefits of honey. It is using a standard template similar to other pages, but I chose to embed a youtube video to provide additional information.

Bees - This page contains basic information about bees and some fun facts that keep visitors engaged. It is using a standard template similar to other pages.

Contact Us - This page is using a standard template similar to other pages, but additionally, it also contains from which allows visitors to contact my uncle.

About - This page contains information about this project. It is using a standard template similar to other pages


In my opinion consistency across all pages and simple choice of colors and fonts makes this website professional, and easy to use. I tried to use interesting content pair with meaningful images to make this website engaging.




Opportunities:
Many things could be done to improve this website. Content is one of the main components that I would like to spend more time on. Other things that would make this site more engaging would be animations and more unique fonts. From the branding perspective designing a unique logo would also help this website stand out. One of the main missing components is a shopping cart. This is a part where I would most likely use a commercial product or at minimum well known and maintained framework.
