Grammarbook.com
Grammarbook.com was recommended by the Professor as one of three websites that may prove helpful in our research papers. The main page of the website is very busy and distracting. It has a look of an advertisement instead of a scholarly site intended to be used by students.
Users can get into the meat of the site and find information on grammar by clicking on one of the links listed in its menu located to the right of the left bank of ads. The navigation menu is an almost grey font color. If I had not accidentally hovered over them with my mouse there is a good chance I would have missed it all together and went to one of the other links listed by the professor.
Overall, once I got passed my overly critical web designer mental blocks of looking at the page, it proved quite useful for English grammar rules.
I agree that the opening page is busy and looks very commercial in nature. The issue with the navigation menu color selection is somewhat disturbing, overall it was a poor choice for the designer. Still, the site proved useful to me.
This was the website I preferred as well. Yes, the home page is a little busy with advertisements and colors, but I really was not distracted. I found it to be fluent and informative, with useful but simple examples. When I choose a curriculum for home schooling, I tend to choose simple because I feel the busyness lessons the purpose so I do understand.
I am impressed that you have a blog. I am sure you do not think it is a big deal but I have never attempted to initiate my own.
