ED SHEERAN
The first thing that caught my eye was the big picture of what seems like to be from his new music video. This hooked my into wanting to watch his new video and have my own opinion about it.
If there are images on the page, do they add value to the content, or are they for decoration and appeal? If they add value, describe how.
The images do add value to the content because they are all linked to the artist for example he has merchandise of his recent albums and also he has pictures of places where he has performed at. This adds value because it shows that he wants to show users of the website what they can consume.
How well does the layout of text help viewers understand the main points of the site content? Does the text layout and style follow an appropriate structure? If so, how does the structure help viewers understand the content?

The layout of text follows an appropriate structure because it is all in line with each other and it is all the same size, colour and font which shows that the artist wants to tell people that he is professional and that he doesn't want to be portrayed as childish.
Are any of the elements repeated on subsequent pages? Are the elements decorative or part of the navigation?
There is only one element that is repeated and that is his social media accounts and also entering your email to know straight away when Ed Sheeran has released new music.

The font and font sizes are the exact same on every page of the website apart from the title which is a different font and size to make it stand out to the viewers of the website. This shows consistency because a website wants to be consistent to make it look professional.
