What a good website would include
A good website corporates a handful of things. Some websites have all of these features and some of them only have a few of them. They should all link in well together and all parts, e.g. images, navigation, purpose and it being user friendly so that it sits well as a successful website.

Navigation
Traditional navigation menus are located at the top or side of a website page. However, more and more websites have been using unique navigation menus. In some cases there is no navigation “menu”, but rather a different way of directing or “navigating” the user towards the information they’re looking for.

User friendly
Being user friendly can bring a lot of people to it. If it isn't user friendly then it will be a lot of people not able to navigate around it.Usability has always been of key importance in a successful website. If it is difficult to use and navigate for the user then they may not know how to use the website and there may be confusion caused on where everything is.

Images
Choosing the right images for your website can help with brand positioning and connecting with your target audience. All images should contribute the meaning or reasoning behind the website or what the website is there for.

Purpose
Needs to be clear, it needs to be showing the meaning of why it was produced. It should all relate to the meaning/purpose of the website. For example if its a band/artist then it should all be related to them and all context/images they should all link to them.

An example of this would be, if we used low amount of lighting then it'll be setting a dull and sad atmosphere which would help highlight the meaning behind the song is not a positive atmosphere. Also the other way round as well, as if a large amount of colour is used then it'll set a more upbeat atmosphere and show that they're more likely to be given a positive media video to see.
