Today there are two websites in the area of consumers' opinions which are true opponents. The site that is a beginner in this area named PissedConsumer.com tries to gain more visitors than its rival Consumer Reports has. So what would be the feature that can bring victory to one of these resources?

If you load up the sites simultaneously, the differences are quite obvious. If we compare the appearances we can see that Consumer Reports has got a bit plainer but more professional interface. The basic colors that are used during the creating of the website are grey, white and blue. Here you can find a great deal of different links and pictures that are completed with small stories. The interface of Pissed Consumer comprises mainly red and white colors that make it look perfectly. However, their website does not have the identical professional feel to it as Consumer Reports. This is partly due to the different advertisements all over their page (supplied by Google). Some designers do not consider the fact that too many links with no pictures can repulse and customers wouldn't want to deal with the site in future. The website does comprise two specifically useful sections. The first is a lately discussed bar that displays you the articles or complaints with the newest comments to them. The other is a “hot topics” section with one word links to the subject. One insignificant disadvantage of the hot topics part is that font utilized there is actually small to distinguish it easily.

For the customer who visits Consumer Reports at the first time it is really simply to find some required topics as they are strictly divided into some main themes. There is a Consumer Reports Magazine, but there are a lot of topics on their website which include the discussions of the issues placed in that magazine. The arrangement of Pissed Consumer is also quite proper but it has some evident disadvantages. The front page contains the most recently posted complaints and articles which can be a little confusing to a first time visitor. There is a board that comprises a lot of articles. This board is actually flaring but the articles are not arranged by their matters properly. Both websites include some excellent searching systems that make the navigation processes performed by users actually easy. There is a thought that Consumer Reports includes significantly greater quantity of information but it is not true, actually. Pissed Consumer doesn't propose a proper menus that is why it seems to be less helpful, but it really may brag of a lot of unique and really helpful information.

These sites cover practically the identical range of themes of topics but Consumer Report seems to be better arranged and attentive for its customers. It allows the user to quickly and effectively find the data which they are looking for. Pissed Consumer isn't bad but its awkward interface and advertisements keep it back from splendor.
