Abstract/Summary
Marketing is a key element in a company’s development. Remaining in the public eye helps ensure business as well as generate new clients. A continuous marketing tool companies use to remain visible is a website. In order to be effective, a website needs to engage and encourage users to connect with a company. The purpose of this study was to analyze the visual appeal and aesthetic design of websites for selected corporate event planning companies. The researcher studied certain components that reflect a successful website and then created a matrix based off research to collect data. The data helped to formulate results and conclusions regarding the success of each of the three websites selected. Major findings for each company were recorded and recommendations were made by the researcher to enhance each of the selected websites and to further develop the study.
