Digital Site

Atlanta.com is a very resourceful website. On the front page the website shows off beautiful photographs of Atlanta’s skyline and aquarium. The site is split into eight sections; hotels, restaurants, things to do, neighborhoods, MARTA, local businesses, about, and blogs.  The hotels section lists 11 of the best hotels to stay at in Atlanta and briefly describes the best attributes to them along with a picture of the hotel.

This section is well put together and it is very easy to read and find information, although the only hotels featured on this page are high in price. The hotels section could be improved by adding more mid-range priced places to stay.

The restaurants section of the website is organized just like the hotels section, but instead of places to stay it showcases the best places to eat in Atlanta. This section describes the mouthwatering food served, along with pictures of the food or building. I can almost taste the food they are describing and makes me want to visit every one of these places.

The things to do section is also set up the same way. It describes popular activities going on around Atlanta. Their descriptions of each activity make each seem like something you wouldn’t want to miss. The neighborhoods section is very similar to the things to do section as it describes popular activities going on in each section of Atlanta, such as the art district in Midtown.

The MARTA section is very useful. It is a basic guide to using the MARTA system and also includes information like the prices of rides. The local business section is set up like a directory and lists business names, addresses, and phone numbers. The about section is just a small paragraph describing the website. This section seems unnecessary, as it just repeats what the homepage says. The last section, blogs, is a directory of links to blogs that feature activities to do in Atlanta. This section also seems unnecessary, as it is just repeating what is included in the things to do section.

Overall, this website is extremely informative and easy to navigate and find what you are looking for. This website would be a lifesaver for tourists new to Atlanta or even people living in Atlanta just looking for a cool place to go for the day.
