Evaluate 2 Websites

Woot!
Purpose: Advertising site
Visual Appeal: Web safe colors. White and green backgrounds with black/white text and additional colors for the image links to other products.
Navigation: Easy clickable links across the top with duplicated links on the bottom of the site. The top half displays the current product with a noticeable clickable button to buy right below the item description. Small display from the forums is listed next to the product.
Loading time: Very fast load time, less than a second.
The site is consolidated in the middle of the screen so the majority of screen resolutions will be able to view the content.


WRFY-FM
Purpose: News and entertainment site
Visual Appeal: Colors make you blind. Red, yellow, and orange on the side bars contrasts with the whole page. The solid red header bars seem to blend together.
Navigation: Seems a little confusing. Across the top is a quick look to who is on air and some news. The bulk of the information is below the big header bar which requires scrolling.
Loading time: Fast, but could be better.
The site is consolidated in the middle but there is a lot going on that probably could be cleaned up a little.
