Thinking about my website/blog

The mock website I had a go at during the proposal stage was built on Wix. i had not built a website on this platform before so found it a little difficult to navigate and customise, although I have heard it is very easy once the basics are know. 


I did not Like the colour scheme but like the image of outer space, the image is animated and swirls around. I would like to create an animated home page as I find them the most enjoyable sites to visit. 

I have decided for now I will use Wordpress  to create my blog, I am not 100% sure on this decision as there is still the option of using Muse when the lesson with John comes round. I know I don't want to use blogger as I don't like the templates and layout, I find it hard to achieve a professional look. 


I have been looking at examples of other green beauty bloggers and seen some examples of what I don't want to produce...


Looking at a few organic beauty bloggers ‘about me’ page I have found what I would like to avoid in my text, here is Amanda from theorganicbunny.com, her mission is to prove that an organic lifestyle can still be glamorous, which personally I feel is a much known fact among the organic beauty community, with the likes of Amanda Kerr choosing organic products.



As well as organic beauty there is a ‘home’ section on Organic Bunny, I was confused to find a hot pink plastic kitchen appliances set, which is not organic, environmentally friendly or natural. It shouldn’t be there in my eyes, so I am hoping not to make mistakes like this that would cause my readers to lose faith or interest in my blog.
