Info on the Websites:SIMILARITIES

Bonjour again!!
In this post, im going to talk about what is common between the 2 websites so that a fair comparision can later take place.

Firstly the 2 common things of the website are the content.Both content are related to the subject of natural disasters. While one website covers both volcanoes and hurricanes



, the other covers only volcanoes



Other than having the same content, both websites have 2 other things in common. The goal of both websites is to educate people on volcanoes or natural disasters depending on the websites. Another thing both the websites share is the targetted audience that they are trying to appeal to. Both websites are trying to appeal to students who need information on natural disasters or volcanoes. The proof for the first website is :

the navigation bar


and the layout of small fonts and pictures like:


As i have stated before that both websites are trying to appeal to students, now the proof for the second website to confirm this statement.



The image on the left shows the target audience which is for the purpose of educating the public and give out more information on volcanoes. At the same time, this website is administered by an university therefore, one can deduce that the website can not only be used for information on volcanoes but also for research material. Also at the same time, the titles in the navigation bar make the website seem as though the purpose is to attract students or kids to come and know more about volcanoes.
Now, since i have identified the similarities, it makes the job of deciding which website is better much easier. This is of course only after comparing the 2 websites.
