The first fellow student blog I will be discussing is http://lourose1875.simplesite.com. In reviewing this entire, blog I feel this blog has an effective layout where anyone can find information easily and quickly. The graphics in the blog make it appealing.
The blog has a variety of colors which complemented each other, and were not too loud or bold. The content needs work. The information should always be correct, and accurate. Revisions are necessary in order to reach the target audience effectively.
Several blog graphics did not represent the topic effectively. I would recommend reconsidering the graphics in Communication Basics; cookie images do not create an interest in the topic. The blog Delivering Bad News Tactfully graphics need to make you feel as if you were delivering bad news.
The graphics in this blog relationship do not work well with the written material. The language is clear and understandable; however, it gets confusing as you read. Sentences are starting and ending everywhere. Revising the small font is necessary in this article. The 3 Communication Components is blog set up attractive, except the wording seems confusing. Other than a few revisions, this is a good blog.
The next blog I will review is http://sah17.wordpress.com/. This blog starts off with a unique view of the sun setting, which really puts you in a relaxing mood. This creates a nice impression for your audience, making them wanting to return to your site. The layout of the blog is set up where everything is easy to locate. The choice of graphics is right on target, making you want to continue to read more.
Every image in this blog attracted my attention right away. I could feel the topic in the images. The language was clear, effective, and easy to understand. The colors are mostly dark and neutral; however, they fit in perfectly with the topic. This blog shows its purpose, by the outstanding work and content which has been displayed.
I recommend in this blog incorporating more color and graphics. “Viewers see visuals first, which is what makes it your best opportunity to get noticed” (Marsh, 2009). Breaking long paragraphs down into small paragraphs will make the information easier to read and follow. This blog meet all the qualifications of being professional.
The last blog I will review is http://jennysimms.blogspot.com/. This blog started out with a soft pink color, which creates a pleasant mood. The background is the only graphic and color in the entire blog. The need for graphs and images in blogs is important, it is necessary to attract your audience. The appearance of the blog is crucial to keep your audience coming back. The design of the layout is sufficient in finding information quickly. The reading and text is clear and easy to understand.
Reaching the audience might be difficult because the blog shows no graphics, only words. This blog lacks appearance which is the crucial to blog. The blog has no pictures with colors or images to enhance the writing or set a mood to lure the audience in. Adding graphics would make this blog more interesting. I would recommend breaking up some of the long paragraphs. The purpose is to make the blog easier to read. With a few revisions this will become an effective blog.
