The two websites are completely different to each other, The Rihanna website is a lot more brighter as it is more colourful and the images included are also in colour compared to the Arctic Monkeys website, which is Black and White, including the images. This is because the artists are different genres, so by using different conventions such as colour codes, this helps the viewer establish and identify the genre easier.
The images on the Rihanna website are also much more natural,for example, most photos are of her out in public and there is 1 photo from a magazine, but this helps the viewer connect as they can see she is actually a normal person and does normal things. Whereas the Arctic Monkeys images are all from live performances to give it that indie/rock type of feel, however, this will make the viewer want to go and see them as all the photos look like the concerts will be fun.
At first, I preferred working on WordPress but I think this is because I prefer Rihanna in general as appose to Arctic Monkeys. But once I started uploading things such as the photos for the gallery, I started to have trouble as my laptop wasn't compatible and some of the photos wouldn't upload or show on the page, which was a bit of a nightmare and meant I had to go on a computer at school (which wasn't a mac) to enable my pictures would upload and show. It was also quite annoying as the photos wouldn't go where I wanted them to and as time went on, I found it more and more stressful as I kept losing work that I had spent loads of time on and things (pages) were harder to find.
Next, I used Wix, which I found a lot easier as my laptop was more compatible with, it was also a lot clearer then Wordpress as the menus were a lot more simple, My work also didn't get lost unlike wordpress- So I preferred this website to wordpress. Therefore, I will use this to create my artists webpage.
