Introduction I have chosen two of the biggest broadband and telecommunication companies in Ireland for this website comparison. O2 and Vodafone are both leading distributors of mobile services for individuals and corporate clients providing them with solutions in communications. They are the two biggest competitors in the mobile networking industry in Ireland constituting for 88% of the total market. This market percentage is split between Vodafone and O2, 48% and 40% respectively.

This is something O2 are specialising and it entices customers to stay with the network.

However, it does not share the same consistency as O2’s blue theme as there are other colours which I personally found quite distracting when trying to analyse it. For example on the home page red is clearly the dominant colour, however the Vodafone login box on the right side of the screen has a purple outline, which seems lost on the page. Underneath this there are two other boxes for “top questions” and “most popular searches”. These boxes are outlined in a green colour which again feels quite out of place. Also the exclusive offers box in the middle of the screen is outlined in blue. Alls of these different colours makes it difficult to match the
