http://solvetheissues.com/

      First off...this is a slow website.

      The purpose of this website is to bring attention to current issues and to try to get people to come together and find a common ground solution. They feel as if the government is not sufficiently taking into consideration the problems of the American people, and also their opinion and views on the issues. They aim to try and get people to voice their opinions in order to effectively communicate with government officials what the people want, especially when many officials are not well-educated on such issues.

     The intended audience for this website is simply the general public, but more specifically those that are actually concerned with issues in our country. They are seeking people who truly want to try and make a difference and to see change occur. I feel as if this website probably not doing justice for trying to reach their intended audience. First off, if you type into Google, "Solve issues in America", this website is not even included through the third page of searches. They have a twitter account, which I checked and sadly they only have 25 followers...just saying, I joined twitter a few weeks ago and I have 24 followers.

     I feel as if this website is helpful in highlighting some of the issues and it does bring to the table an opportunity for people to have an open, constructive forum for their opinions. I hate to say it, but I would probably not take the time to sit and read through all the issues, and then propose my opinions on how to solve them.

     One thing I found interesting is that you can "support solve" by buying instant movies off of Amazon. How is that helping Solve? Why wouldn't you have something more relevant to support your organization?  I probably would not recommend this site to others, simply because I feel that there are still a few flaws that this organization needs to work out, before they can truly become successful. I feel that there website needs to be more inviting and "eye-catchy". The design is very basic, and the graphics themselves are not very well-done in my opinion. People base judgements off of what they see first, and if they see a website that appears to be outdated, chances are they will not continue to even follow through to exam the material and content. They also need to improve on their forum questions and expand on the issue. Most of the issues they post should include more than a single paragraph explaining what the issue is, and they also could tone down the exaggerated punctuation. They also need to find better avenues to bring in revenue and support, because I lack to see how buying an instant video off of Amazon is going to help them?
