well as recommending any changes if need be. Finally, the report highlights some of the improvements

Technologies used
Tribute Limited website is an informational website created using html and css technologies. The use of
html for this website provide a proper formatting of the website’s texts as well as the images (Ericae,
2018). It is the html code that tells the browser how to display the websites as well as where to place
the websites objects such as images and texts (Answers, 2018). Based on this aspect, it is therefore
evident that html provides the structure of the website while the cascading style sheet (CSS) gives this
structure a look and feel aspect (Rebuildingtheweb, 2018) hence the choice to use these technologies to
create tribute website as shown below.
Usability and Accessibility

many usability features that are very critical for the success of any website (Insivia, 2018). These
features include the ease of navigation, the design of the website and the content contained in the

There are four navigation tabs which lead to the following pages respectively: Home, Find us, Portfolio

2012). The navigation bar is present in all pages and therefore it is easy to go back to the previous page
by just clicking the right navigation tab on the website. The two side bar which include Music News and
Top Songs UK provide links to external resources that can be important to the users.
Design
This website design is responsive to any platform and this makes it accessible across any device which
include laptops, smart phone and tablets. There is also consistency in the design and each element is
replicated in each web page at the same position (wiseGEEK, 2018). This makes it possible for users to
understand as well as memorize different functionalities and elements of this website hence making it
easy to use. However, in order to make the design more attractive, all the elements should be placed on
one container so that they don’t appear to be separate as shown below.
Content
The content of the website is the information represented in the website. Considering that the Tribute
Limited website is meant for the music production company, it therefore should contain information
related to music industry as it is the case now (Spritzweb, 2018). The content of this website is therefore
