Two Aspects of Bad Webpages
The first aspect of a bad webpage is when a website does not state or show what they are trying to get us to do.  In other words, if the website has a home page that says or shows anything that the site is about. One example of this is http://creativecanada.gc.ca/index.html#street. This website has literally six different places you can visit. Out of these six places it’s still hard to figure out what this website is for.  Another example is http://www.pennyjuice.com/htmlversion/whoispj.htm. This website talks about how pennyjuice is 100%juice but the first thing you see on the page is them asking who pennyjuice is. These websites are just too unclear for us to understand.
 	The second aspect of a bad webpage is when a webpage is cluttered with gifs and images. If there are too many images this can draw our attention away from where they want us to be focused on. One example of this is http://heaven.internetarchaeology.org/heaven.html#bottom. This site has too many gifs right in the beginning. It takes way too long for it to load up I got bored in waiting and decided that this was not a website for me. Another example is http://www.bearflagwine.com/. This website has pictures that have nothing to do with what the website is about.

Two Aspects of Good Webpages
	The first aspect of a good website is professionalism. A website that has a professional appearance has more of a chance of people using their website to access information. One example of this is http://www.brynathyn.edu/. This site doesn’t overcrowd by pictures but at the same time the information on this site it pertinent to what Bryn Athyn College is, along with many tabs so you can dive a little bit deeper into the understanding of Bryn Athyn College. Another example is https://nyse.nyx.com/.  This website has the information needed to easily direct you around the New York Stock Exchange. 
	The second aspect of a good website is content. If website is using content that is relevant to why you went to that website in the first place then you are more prone to using their resources then others. One example of this is http://time.com/. This website allows us access the news as well as what other believe on this topic. This is important to see what others believe about a specific point. Another example is http://www.theverge.com/. This website allows us to jump into the current technological advances we have today. Also this gets us to dive into what technology we might be coming out with next.
