Website Name:- Westlife Planet
Website URL:- http://www.westlifeplanet.nlt
Webmistress/s:- Sandra and Laura
Reviewed By:- Saz

Layout:- 9/10

Gorgeous colour Splash Page - its absolutely lovely, I LOVE purples and pinks and this website did not fail to make me go 'wow!!' I spent about ten minutes just looking at it's stunning detail and all-round sparkliness! The pic on the Splash Page is also lovely, quite up to date too (as it the Homepage pics). The only thing I cringed slightly when looking at was Georgina's face (not being mean!) but one of the pics on the Homepage makes her look a little bit drunk (her eyes are slightly dazed!) I'm taking a point away because on the Splash Page the writing under the pic is in almost the exact same colour as the background which makes it difficult to read.


Navigation:- 10/10

Not too much I can say really except, very good. Easy to use and everything I needed to find on the site was right there in front of me. Well done girls!


Content:- 19/20

SOOO much to say here! Okay, site is updated very often (every day or two), the profiles on each of the Westlifer's are very informative with loads of info on them (including whether their belly buttons are 'innies or outies' hehe (which, frankly, we all kinda wanna know!!) There are a nice little bundle of fanfics too which is nice as everybody loves a good fanfic!
The news section is very up to date as well, as are the pictures (altho could have done with a few more). The only thing I'm taking a mark away for is the fact that some of the pics have been typed across with the persons name who donated it to the site (or took the pic) - I really don't like looking at a gorg pic of Nix and having writing across his lovely bod! There are other ways of ensuring people don't nick pics (by disenabling the right mouse click) and you can credit the people who gave you the pics by thanking them UNDER the pic itself or in a separate Thank You page. Other than that, the content is fantastic, the site is great for all fans, new or old! lol


Interaction:- 5/5

I like that the site asks your name on entering, although I'm not terribly sure why! I was hoping to see 'Hey Saz!' scrolling along the bottom of the screen or maybe even a personalised greeting on the Homepage but there was no indication that the site 'knew' my name! So, kinda pointless asking it…
The site has interactive fics and some nice little quizzes to keep you busy which I thought was lovely!


Webmistresses:- 5/5

Both are easy to contact (their names are linked on the Homepage and their email addi's pop up in their profiles too!)
I love that there are profiles on each of them, helps to know what kinda nutters have made the site you are sifting through!! I also LOVED their signatures at the bottom of their profiles, oooooooh glitterlicious! Wanna make me one girlies? ;0) hehe


Extra:- 8/10

This site clearly had out button on the Splash Page so they get five points for that immediately. I wanted to give these girls another five points here simply because so much work has gone in to this site and they obviously love working on it. The only thing is, there is nothing about this site that makes it stand out from other Fansites, it needs something different about it. I do love this site though and its essential for all fans who are new to the whole 'Westlife' thing (where've ya been?! Haha) I will definitely be going back though - need to read those fics!


Bottom line:- Fab fansite, STUNNING layout, stacks of info - definitely worth a visit! Keep up the great work girls!


Total:- 56/60
Stars out of 5:- ****
