Week 9: Blogs, Vlogs, Podcasts & Webinars

 Reaching for the human element in a business blog post makes the business (what ever it may be) more personable, more relatable, more welcoming. This may spark more interest in your audience and even allow more people or customers feel better about sharing your content and so reach an even larger audience.  Not every post needs to be a human interest piece, but neither does every post need to be cold and just pushing a sale or for a conversion. To me I think adding a piece of me into a post that can make it more relatable to my audience is almost natural, like meeting a group of new people and finding a common interest with a few of them.

I would make some of my diy posts more about how I solved the problems I was facing in the painting or assembly of the models that I am showcasing. The niche genera I’ve chosen lends itself to more of a personable approach as it is more of a personal hobby to many more people than a business.

Week2-Part B Business Research

 eBay Miniature Rescues https://www.ebayminiaturerescues.com/ This is a tabletop miniature painting service.

It is literally a one man show. Teaches tips and techniques anyone can use to save miniatures or models and save some money (expensive habit…I mean Hobby). Ships anywhere mail will go to really.

Week 1 - Blog Theme

  I chose the Notable Coral theme to start with. The color scheme first caught my eye. The bright coral color against the black background stood out among the gallery of themes on offer. It also came with a clean simple design and I knew I was going to want to modify it a bit, so thought that would make an easier place to start from. Notable Coral, I noticed, was way more dynamic in adapting to platform sizes than some of the other themes. In this new era of smart phones and tablets that more and more people are using to view internet pages on, I thought that this would be a plus for any direction I would be going in with this blog. I think it would be better for more people on whatever device they prefer to have an enjoyable experience when interacting with this blog or any website. I like the options of customizing the themes that Blogger provides. For this Notable Coral theme, I changed the Title font and color, the font of the main body text, and how vivid the coral color is. I...

Week 3 Part A: Aesthetics, Design, and Branding

      http://gatesnfences.com/     http://jamilin.com/ These two websites have some problems, to say the least. The Ease of use, or more like, the lack of Ease of use on both sites makes it almost imposable to locate what you may be looking for if you went to the websites as a search result. Neither use Contrast very well. What contrast that is used pull attention away from relevant information about product or links to that information. Typography use is basic at best if it was even thought of. Both at least picked a sans seraph font. Neither of these sites come across as projecting any kind of professionalism in either the design or more safely, in the company they were designed for.   A couple of improvements could drastically change the perception of both websites. A more contrasting color scheme would change the overall appearance dramatically. Both should pay attention to where the colors could be used to build a hierarchy in the page. Proxi...
