Content Audit
Reflection
My event was a Lymphoma Research Ride site. I found while
doing the audit for this website that it was very difficult. Most of the pages
do not link to anything, and if they do it is very little information. There
was only one set of links on the “About Us” page that had any coherence with
the rest of the website. A few things I noticed while clicking on the links
from the event website was that a brand new box pops up really small and has
scroll bars on them. At first when I went to see if that link had any more I
could not find them because they were not visible. The content Audit for this
site is very small because the website is so poorly made. www.lymphoma.org/ride2012/
The second website I chose was http://lymphosite.org/. It is a research site
that has a better design but I ran into the same issues with the links. They
give minimal information when clicking on another link and there is not much activity
or navigation throughout the entire website. This is a bad thing. For someone
who would want to find out a lot of information on Lymphoma would be concerned about
the credibility of this website. There are no links for references at all.
The last website I found is the best one. www.lls.org. It personifies how a website should
be laid out from all the links to the design. I noticed that while doing the
content audit for this one, all the links that were there were actually named
and you knew what page you were on. The other two websites failed to do that. There
were no pop-up windows and each link was organized with categories and
sub-categories.
