In this website front page it shows two methods to view this magazine: PDF format which is the old fashioned way. PDF, this software allow you to view, create, modify and print PDF documents, which is created by Adobe and is the most efficient way to exchange information. People can download this software for free from their official site at http://www.pdf-2008.com/acrobat/. The other method to view this magazine is Adobe Flash Player, (Adobe’s Site, 2007) “is the high-performance, lightweight, highly expressive client runtime that delivers powerful and consistent user experiences across major operating systems, browsers, mobile phones, and devices”. People will able to download from Adobe Flash Player’s official site at http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/, and it is free.

This site is also offering chat room, it require signing up for an account but it is 100% free.

The advantage of this magazine site compares to the paper magazine in the high street, which is you will able to view all the weekly issues that this magazine has published before since 2004 to now.

 

I have also found out this magazine has also offer essential guide to London’s Gay Villages and the secret gay history of London, a great promotion for customers to remember what was happening.

 

In the travel sector it also shows travel forum in the other places, such as UK&Ireland, Europe, Americas, others.

Although they are not any advertisings on this QX official site, but they have contact information on this site, people will easier to find rate cards (which shows the size and the price of the advertising on their magazine), it is a good way to communicate with business people without to contact the company they will directly know this information from their site.

 

The homepage of this site is basically taking colour from the title of its magazine, using it as background on the webpage, it tried to keep company theme.

 

 

The Magazine from Scotland for Lesbians, Gays and Bisexuals, was set up in December 1994 as a bi-monthly magazine in Scotland.

 

 

 

 

‘One way to get people involved with you and your music is to give them something to do while they’re at your web site. That’s why you should add some kind of interactive element, such as a poll, guest book, message forum, e-cards, etc.’ (p7, Banker, B) Banker’s view will support my opinion of this site, as they have guest book in it, which allow people to read through the comments that other people have left previously, and people are free to fill in the form at the bottom of their guestbook page to add a new comment of their own. It keeps a good link between site and audiences.

This site also offers an on-line subscription service, which will allow this company to notified by e-mail each month when the new issue of ScotsGay is published, customers are also able to de-subscribe if they do not wish to continue receive the notified email.

This website carries text files of all issues, but since 2005 Pdf files are able to view too.

 

ScotsGay magazine has Myspace as well. It is good to keep in touch with netfriends, and it will allow people to communicate better who are like this magazine too. On Myspace it shows it has 1060 friends. As Banker’s view to sign up a Myspace account it is a good way to increase your sales.

I like the way they edit their subtitle, when you move your mouse on it, they will change to the other colour, but the animation pictures they edit in here, which is same as when you read book or newspapers.
