Usability analysis of music.lk


 



Web advancement is a craft which is interfacing to science. At the point when creating a site the fashioner ought to need to take a gander at on advertising perspective point additionally. Hove ever at last the site ought to be an easy to understand one.

Taking into account 25 point site convenience check rundown we can examine ease of use of any site. So focused around that today I'm going to breaks down one of acclaimed amusement site "music.lk"

Music.lk Sri Lanka's number one online music supplier gives the open door to surf a large number of tunes, many craftsmen. They mostly give Sinhala/Tamil mp3 and Music Features Free Download office for PC or Portable.

Their vision is to "build the profile of Sri Lankan music overall and to see that the profits from the expanded profile retreat to specialists and experts in the music business"

Presently you have some thought regarding music.lk. So now is the ideal time to apply 25-point site ease of use agenda to Music.lk. The 25 point agenda is separated into 4 primary areas, in particular Openness, Character, Route, and Substance.
Accessibility
Music.lk takes around 6 seconds to load its full home page. The loading time is fairly reasonable. Because the home page is contain with many videos and pictures. The main text color is white in the ash color background which visible and adequate. Font size and pattern is eye catching.



 Identity
As you can see, company logo is placed on the upper left corner of the page. But its dose not has a tag line. From all the menus and pages it is possible to come back to the home page without any problem and the total home page is visible around 7 seconds. 
Music.lk is a well arranged web site. But to find details about music.lk there does not has clear direct path “information or about us “. You can find those details under “contact” tab. So I think music.lk should develop direct tab for “info”.As I mentioned above, under “contact” tab we can see both info & contact details. Under contact details, telephone numbers, email address and office address are available.



Navigation
Main navigation is easy as the main tabs namely, Home, Music videos, Audio songs, DJ & remixes, Tamil, Artist, Blogger and Contact are placed visibly on the top strip of the page. Apart to that main navigations in right end of the strip have direct links to their facebook page, youtube channel and Google plus.

When you click on a song you’re going to download page. In there have all detail about the song such as artist, Music, Lyrics writer, Video Director, number of downloads n views. In latter part of that page visitors can leave comments about the particular song.  
There are no pop-ups in music.lk. But can see number of advertisements.
