Website Review

www.nba.com

For my website review, I reviewed www.nba.com. This site is the primary homepage for the National Basketball Association. This site is about all the NBA teams and where they stand in the league. www.nba.com holds standings, statistics, news stories, pictures, videos, and much more of every team and player. This site is used to help people find there favourite team and players. Also, for people to post blogs, comments, and letters to NBA teams. Basically, it is a sight that allows you surf information on the NBA. The website gives you links to go to individual team's websites. I went to www.nba.com to find information about the Denver Nuggets. I wanted to look at all the statistics of the players, game highlights, coach and player interviews, and the team's standings. I found everything I needed and more. Every page I came upon had a link to other information about the same thing, whether it was statistics or standings. I even had an option to receive the information by email. The site was easy to navigate for me. For first time navigators it would present some difficulty but after a few times visit, they would soon catch on to the process. I could find my way very easily. However, there was a problem that I encountered that made it more difficult to find voting for the all star game. This option only appears once every NBA season on the website. It advertises the NBA All-Star voting but you have to go through several pages and links to get there. NBA players always use this site which has made www.nba.com a hit website. Also, the people who keep up with the NBA which is a vast amount, also accounts for the number of hits the website gets. There is no exact number to the times visited but it would be quite a large number. Also, with foreign countries keying in on their foreign NBA players, the site receives more hits. There was a stat out there that stated the number of hits the site got and that was, 15 million. This number is increasing as the years go on. This is why www.nba.com is the ultimate source for your NBA insight.
