For example ‘snapped’ meaning that famous footballers have been pictured when they don’t know, this could entice the reader. The bold page number and corresponding pictures makes it easier for the reader to navigate around the magazine.
Feature pages need to be interesting to the reader. For example in MATCH! Magazine one of the feature pages is ‘results’.
