Conclusion

I have produced a functional website using a range of techniques in order to have a successful user experience. Within the website I have areas that work well and those that need further improvement. The website needs a larger form of jQuery implemented in order to provide more interactivity the only forms of jQuery consist of the slider and the portfolio displays. The overall layout of the menu works at this time but as I build up my work I will need to develop different pages according to each type of work. The contact page is very dull, it has to much blank spaces therefore in order to fill it up I could implement the social networking websites for users to be directed to. It will be a form of filling out blank spaces without the need to use so much text. As part of the jQuery functionality I could have added an <iframe> with a Google map of where I am located along with my address just in case clients want to contact me by post. Within the portfolio page I will need to implement a scroll bar in order to be able to incorporate further projects without the need to create other pages and add further menus. Although I like the font style used I do believe that it will not appeal to as many users as a normal font style would. This is an area that I did not test during the user testing therefore the results are unreliable. Within the about page I felt that incorporating an image of myself would have been ideal for clients to see who I am. The page seems bland there is only text and some logo icons added, I need to add something more in order for the clients to want to read my information. Within the footer I added several links to pages, these links changed the colour of the text in some pages. Unfortunately I was unable to detect where the error was as it did not occur all the time. This is a main feature of adjustments that is needed. Overall I feel that I successfully built a website with the required information. Although I have only posted a limited amount of work but it's my best projects so far. I will continue to develop this website even after the project is due in, it is an important aspect of what I will use in the future when I am working.
