When I was producing the home page of my magazine's website, I was conscious of creating digital convergence with the front covers and contents page of my magazine. Because of this, I used the same fonts as my front cover (Chopsic and Konexy pro) and I created both a "Latest Features" and "Music news" section where I incorporated some of the same stories as my second contents page. I also advertised the front covers on the website as well as featuring the model of my second front cover in my audio-visual content. I also wanted to appeal to my target audience, 16 - 24 year olds, who are generally more likely to be digital natives so I advertised the magazine's social media accounts to encourage the audience to further interact with the magazine. I also included my masthead, a header and an editor's welcome to conform to what a typical, new magazine would feature on their website. Further, I made a fake Ticketmaster advert, including an original photo, to further appeal to music fans as well as creating a sense of verisimilitude.
