Web Page Analysis
While browsing the enormous variety of sites and home pages on the World Wide Web, it is difficult to compare and contrast items that do not have anything in common. How can we say the "Wall Street Journal page" is better than "Joe's Page of Craziness?" Therefore the first step in critiquing web pages is by determining their purpose. The goal of a web page can vary from presenting factual information such as the "CIA Page," or displaying one's own computer generated art. Hence, the only way to judge a page is by examining what it tries to accomplish, and how it achieves its goal.
Once the objective of the page is established, three simple criteria can be used to determine its "net worth" (pun not

After wandering randomly on the web, thanks to a site randomizer, the site titled, "Alfred Hitchcock - The Master of Suspense," caught my attention. Based on the works of Alfred Hitchcock, the page describes his biography, his movies, and other sources of related information. On the title page, Patricio Lopez lists many different links to more information about Hitchcock. One link tells of Hitchcock's life, other links describe trivial aspects of his work such as his cameos, memorable quotes, people who helped make his movies, and a guide to his films. By briefly examining each of the links, it is apparent that Lopez has thoroughly studied his films (on a casual level) and illustrates his knowledge throughout this site. In some of his other links, Lopez describes himself and his fascination with the cinema and Hitchcock. Thus, Lopez is trying to inform visitors about Hitchcock's life and work. In addition, the site successfully achieves this objective due to the detailed nature of the links and the introduction of lesser known facts, based on his intensive study.
After a more incisive inspection of the various links and the information contained within, I began to evaluate the organization of the site. Organization plays an important role in web sites since the general purpose of a site is to present information of some sort, so the reader could find information faster if the different subjects are arranged in a logical order.

When researching information on websites, there are many credentials that should be looked at. Credentials can include looking up the author names, checking the validation of the information, looking at dates and researching the articles published. By studying the topic of nutrition, there are thousands of websites out on the web with numerous amounts of information on them. Nutrition is a very detailed topic, and readers have to be careful on what they are reading in the fact of the information being true. To show the process of evaluating websites, I have picked two different websites that are paired together. The first one was for the company called JuicePlus, and the other was title EatRight by the Academy of Dietics.
Alfred Hitchcock (1899 – 1980), the “Master of Suspense”, was a English film director, who was well known for his use of suspense and psychological elements to shock and surprise his audience. Hitchcock was known for his use of recurring themes, motifs and plot devices, such as the use of birds, hand motifs, the audience as a voyeur, mothers, blonde women, and sexuality. He was also very technical in his editing, using filming techniques such as deep focus, point of view, close up and wide, tracking shots. Montage was also a technique he used frequently in his films. He believed that by using visuals, he could convey thoughts and emotions just as well as dialogue could.
The Internet provides learners and trainers with the ability to access large amounts of information quickly and easily. Turning this information into a valuable learning resource requires organisation, planning, and careful selection of material. Trainers/Tutors should select websites that are appropriate to the needs of their learners and that support the objectives of the curriculum. Learners should be encouraged to develop a variety of analytical, searching and critical thinking skills and strategies to become confident and competent users of the Internet. Selected websites will need to be revisited regularly, however, to ensure that the content and/or the URL have not changed.

In these paper author focus on finding the gap in understanding how complex individual Web sites are and how this complexity impacts on the usersperformance. Also characterize the Web site both at content level (like, number and size of images) and service level (like, number of servers/origins). It may happen that some categories are more complex than other such as 'News '. Out of hundred 60% of Web sites fetched content from minimum five non-origin sources, and these give more than 35% of the bytes downloaded. In addition, they examine which metrics are most suitable for predicting page render and load times and catch that the number of objects requested is the most important factor. With respect to variability in load times, however, they alsofind number of servers is the best indicator.

In this last semester, I have grown as a student in the area of knowledge. Before this semester I didn't know, that creating a web page was no joke. Now I have great knowledge of the different ways companies and bloggers create web pages to promote their companies. My evidence is my webpage, about a TV show called pretty little liars. I decided to choose a fun topic that I would be really interested in making as a web page. This project of creating a webpage took hard work because most of the things people see are just the webpage but, they don't see all the codes that are behind a web page. Through this project, it was a necessity to always keep up and make sure I didn't skip a step because that meant I had a problem and would have to go
