Finishing Touches
I am finally getting to the point where I am quite satisfied with the outcome of my website. Of course, its not perfect, but I think it is a good website (considering it was the first website I have ever created). Using the research I found on "how to make a good website" I tried to make my website as easy to read as possible, interesting, informative and fun. I have sent the link to my website to some members of my family and they all say they like it. However, they could just be saying this because they are family and want to be nice haha. My uncle is a professor at Northern Arizona University and he is a guide for explorations in the Grand Canyon and on the Colorado River. My grandma gave me the idea to ask my uncle about his experience on the Colorado River since he goes on rafting expeditions on a regular basis. During Thanksgiving break I will talk to my uncle about his first hand experience of the decreased water levels. I could possibly put my talk with him as an interview on my website. I have also added some of my own personal pictures onto my website to show my experience with the Colorado River. My pictures don't really support my claim but I think they are fun and they make the website more personalized. Viewers want to feel a personal connection to the actual website creator. I am going to finish up some more little fixes on my website and get ready to turn it in and present it on Wednesday.

Although the main purpose of your website is to inform the audience, personal pictures are a great touch. That way the audience can feel a connection to it, and could make them see how it could effect them personally. This way it is not just some abstract problem that you are telling them about.
