Website Good and Bad

Two Well Designed Websites:

http://leesferry.com/

The design is smart and simple, with the needed information being extremely easy to find on located directly on the front page. The site is clean and responsive, even with a video on the front page the site loads quickly. Navigation is simple. with the header of the page containing all the information needed about the location. The colors contrast nicely, and the page is symmetrical and sharp.

A website I frequent, the design is not overly stylish, but is extremely functional. The site is clean and loads very quickly, as well as having very effective navigation. The site makes effective use of its white space, and has a sharp and clean interface. The layout is also clean, and easy to navigate.

Bad Website

www.mrbottles.com

This website is just a mess. The colors contrast horribly, and the background color is just horrible. Unwanted audio plays as soon as the page loads, and doesn't stop for half a minute! Navigation is horrible, and the clue as to where links lead are non-existant. The text is just one massive block of words, and is virtually impossible to scroll through, as it is written more like a blog than an informational website.
