I chose Gander Mountain’s website because it is informative and great marketing as well as easily navigable.  Every shopping site has a search bar for a quick look up, no question as to why Gander Mountain has one.  Below that are tabs ranging from apparel and footwear to fishing and boating.  Hovering over each of the tabs gives a drop down tab coving the majority of the page with subsections per that tab.  Below the sub tabs are their online and in store deals.  Adjacent to the deals section is a label ‘More Ways To Shop’ with subsections of weekly ads, new arrivals, promotions, and rebates.


Gander Mountain’s design is obvious to make online shopping and/or viewing items while away from the story quick and easy.  If someone can’t find what they’re looking for in a short amount of time, the shopper will get agitated and likely go to a competitor store such as Bass Pro Shops or Cabela’s.  With a good site design, the user will find what they’re looking for and either buy directly from the online store or go to a store and view the items there.
