That being female, solo artists, pop genre
This is B.O.B's website.
Although he isnt the right specification i am going to look at, he is one of the artists who sing 'airplanes' so i thought i'd find a little information on him and how he's included the song to link to his website.
I found that like other solo artists B.O.B is featured on the home page with a really simple design but a colourful picture that stands out.
B.O.B is hip hop/rap genre and it seems that they are similar to pop artist's websites.
B.O.B has branded him selve using strong contrasting colours in everthing. This from His clothes he wears in everyday life, his album covers, music videos and of course his website. This is a great way of people being able to recognise you as they will remember radical things like this.
The next one i looked at was arctic monkeys
I found with this one as it is the 'indie/rock' genre is follows the forms and conventions of modern indie bands websites. That is in which they mostly use black and have a unique font that they use through out their media.
On the second page you are able to click on different links in order to see different photos of them, events and fans. This is useful as it keeps the fans and the band connected as they are able to see what they did in the past day/month/year.
The next one i looked at was Robbie Williams

Although Robbie would be described as 'pop' music i believe that he is completely different to most resent solo artists. His fan base are mainly from the older generation as thats when he was at his peak.
The website is tidy and simple, i don't think its used for advatising as he is such a well known artist that everyone knows who he is already. So instead they have made is more informational for fans.
I am now going to research my specification
Rhianna, solo pop artist


Codes and coventions for solo pop artists;
The codes and conventions for female pop artists websites is that they are all used for promotional work, usually they have loads of photos of them selves and have a colour theme such as pink. They all include usual things such as contact info, songs, photos, videos, concert dates and many more things.
I have decided to partly go along with the codes and conventions for this but still use black to keep Hayleys previous identity.
