Using Wordpress

In the lesson our prep was set that we had to use a software called Wordpress. This is a site where you can create a website/blog.

Our task was to create a homepage for a band or musician using wordpress.

At the start trying to use wordpress was a challenge because I had only used it once before but a long time ago so the whole layout and style of it had changed.

First what I had to do was choose a name for my home page, I decided to do a artist called Bon Iver. I decided to do him because he is a fairly unknown artist so it would be easy to make a homepage for him.

I decided to do a fairly graphic style of site because it would grab peoples attention.

I then had to make it my own and customise different tiles. To do this I had to add a blog and "stick it" to the front page.

I added lots of tabs such as; music, tour, merchandise, videos, etc. This makes the page more interactive for the audience. 

What my home page looked like: 

I think that if I had more time and when I become more comfortable with Wordpress I would be able to produce a much better website layout that looks more professional.
