Since Maria got expected grade, me and leena were left on our own. Leena was completing Final Music Video so she told me to make Website too, After surfing on how to make a website i selected Mobirise as our platform to build the website for our band.

The reason why i chose Mobirise was due to the fact that it is user-friendly and the editor is extremely simple to use as anyone with a computer can build their own website. Not only does it include many up-to-date templates available, it also provides users the option to start with a blank canvas to construct a website of our own liking. Furthermore, it includes drag and drop tools, a wide range of fonts and other different features. Therefore after careful consideration we opted for Mobirise.

While I understand that there are no particular restrictions/rules when it comes to building a website, however there are some common features that can be found in a majority of the websites that web designers incorporate in their own unique way through the use of their skills and creativity. Here are the common features that I observed:

• Name/Logo: of the band. It is bold, prominent and eye-catching. Usually, it is attached to the header.
• Navigation Bar: Links in the header to the pages which contain various elements of the promotion of the band.
• Sliders/Slideshows: Images and videos arranged into a slideshow.
• Social Media Links: Links to official Facebook, Twitter, Instagram accounts.
• News and Updates: New Releases, Meet & Greets, Promotional Offers.
• Concert & Tour Dates: Upcoming album promotion tours and world tours.
• Media Library (Discography): Featuring track lists, lyrics, albums.
• Album Promotion: New Album release is usually highlighted to boost sales.
• House style: A common style which is common in all the work of the artist. This is made using fonts, colour palettes, typography and certain imagery.
• Awards: Nominations or wins at various music festivals.
• Contact Details: Production company and PR management details.
• Store: Links to buy albums and merchandise such as through Amazon or iTunes.

A website is a collection of such as multimedia content which is typically known or identified with a common domain name and published on at least one web server, for e.g. Google, Wikipedia

Purpose of website:

Websites have a variety of purpose depending on who the target market is but, the main purpose of a website is to deliver specific, helpful information to current and potential clients as well as to constantly update it in order to keep the audience coming back for more information. Moreover, it also allows users to contact the organization or the team behind the website.

For a musician/band, a website not only plays a vital role for their star image but also their branding as well, increasing their popularity and sales. Additionally it provides current fans with content like biographical, tour, discography, media, merchandise details while attracting new fans through content, such as videos, slider, podcasts, slideshows, etc.
