As an example of assessing the content within a website and establishing how it is linked together, we were set the task of completing a content audit. A content audit is the activity of checking all content on a website and compiling it into a big list. This way we can see how each section is linked together and how the website works as a whole. While doing this on Studio LoveLocks website I discovered a lot of features I had not noticed until going through it.

One feature is that on the landing screen, as the slides go across - if the user clicks anywhere on the window which holds the brief overview of a piece recent work it takes them straight to the whole section on that case study, this is a quick and easy way to transition from brief info to the full case study.

Also another feature that i did not notice is that only a select few pieces of work are shown in the landing page’s slideshow, at first glance I thought it gave an overview on all case studies within the website but it only shows a few key pieces of work that Studio LoveLock want to draw attention to.
