Website Research
- It is clear that for all the different websites, the different pages at the top, are always different.
- Font type is different depending on the type of artist/band.
- All have a shop, gallery of either videos or videos, often show tour dates or show venues, links to their music some way to contact them and they all have a bio.
- Made up of one main page with it being split into different parts for the things like: Videos, images, bio, contact etc.
- Contains an image gallery.
- Mainly pictures of just the band members but rarely them performing.
- Most pictures are taken inside some sort of studio, but some photos also are taken outside or whilst the band is performing.
- Most websites contain just the one or two music videos on the main page.
- Often have a video gallery that is much like the photo gallery. Sometimes they will have one big gallery of both photos and videos.
- The video gallery never really contains any behind the scenes footage, but they do tend to just have music videos.
- Video galleries contain behind the scenes videos and blooper reels in some cases.
- Some websites have more videos than others. Almost all videos are YouTube embedded links.
- Often there will be a picture at the top of a website and so the colour pallet will match the colours in the image.
- Often a website will just consist of the one colour.
- Usually, the duller colours work more and are featured more in rock artists websites rather than in other music genre artists.
- Bands tend to have an image of the members, but often single artists may have an image or video playing in the background.
- Some images like these, remain in the background of the website as you scroll down.
- Social media links are often at the top of the page and sometimes at the bottom of the page.
- Always have a Spotify, Instagram, TikTok and Twitter. Most other social media links vary between websites.
- There is often an email address at the bottom where you can get in touch of the artist. Always called the contact page.
- You often send the email via the website so that you don't get the artists personal details and it is much easier to send any messages straight away.
- Often a website will have a page dedicated to what they do and what sort of songs they perform.
- If the website is related to a band, then it will name all of the different performers and how and when they joined.
- Band bios are often shorter than solo artist's bios as they can talk more about themselves rather than splitting the amount of text between the different band members.
- The font type of the website will always match the kind of style of the band or the artist.
- Never use a regular font, all fonts are fancy, or they create their own for the title.
- Some allow you to play it on different sources and also allow you to buy it.
- Some websites want you to buy the music and don't allow you to play it.
- Some websites allow you to listen straight away from the website.
- All tour dates allow are shown straight from the website and they sometimes allow you to order tickets straight off of the website.
- Some tours take place in bigger settings.
- Other tours take place in smaller locations.
- Some websites don't allow you to purchase tickets off of the website.
