Final Project Site References

As y’all know I am doing a site over self defense, defending your property and family. I did not have a problem finding sites that contained excellent information to help me out with my project, but all of the sites were about as basic as you can get. They were all set up almost like a blog or article. So.. I have the information I need to place into the site, but I am starting from scratch as far as the design. Here are the sites that I located:

21 Ways to Protect Yourself from Theft

This site is awesome when it come to information, but it is set up like a blog or article. Like ALL of the sites that I have viewed they tried to pile all the information of the site onto just a few pages. Very good info.

Self Defense

This site look s like your typical macho martial arts website, and it gives a ton of information. Although their demographic may be geared toward men it still gave me some ideas toward the layout of information.

Self Protection Tips

This site gives excellent information on self defense during everyday life and in normal situations. The layout to me is horrible though.

Close Combat

This is another site that has very good information. One things that I like that they incorporated into the site was video of the self defense moves. This layout is still pretty rough.

No Nonsense Self Defense

Another site with excellent information. The site has a ton of links on it within the information just incase you need clarification on certain terms about self defense. Although they tried a little harder on the design and layout than the other sites it is still very basic.

So I have all of the resources I need to help me with the information in the site. I am anxious to hear the critiques on my color comps. I am also anxious to get started.

  1. Hey Joe–cool sites. I like that you are doing this for your final project. I think the information is very useful and interesting, too. There’s a lot of it, so you’re in good shape for creating a website.

  2. I kind of had the same problem. I found some sites that had good examples of content for my site, but it was difficult to find examples of good design. I definitely think the content is the most important aspect of a website, so it is good that you found some good inspiration.

  3. Great resources man, you shouldn’t have any trouble filling out your website with all that research you got.
