The billboard for my newspaper


I made a billboard for my newspaper which will be outside of shops that sell my newspaper. I used the main story in my newspaper as the story on the billboard so that customers know it is important and is a main story.

Font for my website

I made sure the fonts for my website were similar to the ones on the actual newspaper so that customers know they're the same. I also made sure the fonts looked professional and formal so that they're easier to read. All of the fonts for the stories and headings on my website are the same so that it looks basic and neat to read.

Colour scheme for website

I made sure the colour scheme for my website was the same as it was for the actual newspaper. This is so customers will be able to tell which newspaper the website is about and also to make it look more professional. I used black writing for all of the stories and made it look neat, tidy and spaced out to make it easier to view and read.

Photos for my story


I made sure I added photos to my story so that customers have an idea of what they're reading and who they're reading about. I also added small captions under the photos so that people know what the photos are.

Layout of story


I made the layout of my story on my website look like a real story by spacing the paragraphs out and making sure the paragraphs are short and easy to read rather than being in a block so customers are less likely to read it.

Heading and date


I made sure I added a heading on the page with my main story on it so customers can immediately tell what the story is about. I also added the date and time the story was published to make it look more like a real website page.

National news


I added a part on the website home page where customers can also view what is happening in the rest of the world so they can keep up to date with important news around Northampton and also National.
