These are 4 sites that I found through doing a Google search and cover a variety of different areas of the country. From these chosen sites I can learn about things that need to be included within my site (such as pages and content) and can then build up ideas about what to put into my final design.
These website examples are also in my sketchbook where I have annotated them in some more detail. Click on the following images to view them full size.

| www.pimlicoplumbers.com |

| www.duelservices.co.uk |
 |
| www.heatingcentral.com |
 |
| www.homeserve.com/plumbers |
These websites share some common features such as:
- Logos
- Menu bars
- Footers containing legal info and links
- Prominence of phone number
- Clear information about the company on the homepage
- Plumbing images
- Gas accreditation marks
- Simple layouts
From these websites I have found many features that I can now incorporate into my own website design so that it fits into the genre of website which I should be focussing on. From these observations and from my sketchbook annotations I will be able to create a believable and appropriate design. These website examples will also help me work out what pages the website should have - and I will look at this in a future blog post.
I will also look at a couple of Mario fansites for some further research in another blog post so that I can combine the two types of website into one design.
