3. Avenged Sevenfold Website
Overall the avenged sevenfold website has a very clear and professional feel to it as it has a clear identity to it
with its fonts and its artwork. There are some very good aspects to this website that make it very easy to
navigate through out the website but at the same time very eye-catching. The navigation bar allows for
users to navigate to the different areas of the website for example the videos and the stores. There are
also links on the home page to these areas for example the videos and the photo which are slightly quicker
to use and are for user who know where the shortcuts are on the pages.

5. Lady GaGa Website
On the Lady GaGa website there is again a clear definition of the style and the uniqueness of lady gaga.
Because lady gaga is so unique with what she wears and how she acts, and this is reflected in her website
by things like haus of gaga rather then saying house of gaga which just gives her that edged on other
artists. The website is very clear and looks very professional but at the same it is very eye-catching and
user friendly.
Things that work well on these two website
• The navigation bar
• The artwork
• The login and the email sign up
• The news feed
