Comparison of Website and Newspaper

• On the newspaper website, the main article is reproduced exactly as it appears in the actual newspaper. However there is an extra feature added which allows people to post comments on the article.
• The website holds archives of much older articles and images that can be accessed if requested, however the newspaper only features an article once, and unless the newspaper is kept, cannot be viewed again.
• The website also includes a section informing people of whats on at the cinema for that week, the newsaper doesnt feature this section every day of the week, only on a Wednesday.
• The website contains hyperlinks on pages that lead to other articles and advertisements, obviously the newspaper does not have this feature

• There is clearly a 'house style' as the website and the newspaper use the same colour scheme (blues and whites) and font (sans serif). The website layout follows the same style as the newspaper. Brand identity is achieved, with both the newspaper and the website featuring the logo and title.

• The weather is featured on both the newspaper and website, however on the website it can be updated instantaneously.

• Both predominantly feature local news from the areas of circulation, however the website also includes scrolling text at the top of the homepage featuring the latest national news.
