contents page - Market research

On each of these contents page there is a main image centered in the page. Along the side of the magazine you can see what stories are in the magazine and what page they are on. The reason for the main stories been at the side is so that when the reader first opens the magazine and turns to the contents page they can chose whichever story they want to read first and they already know what page it is on rather than looking through the whole magazine to find it. All 3 of the magazines i chose do this. This makes it easier for the reader to find the story what they want to read. Also on all 3 magazine contents page at the top it shows the title of the magazine. Each of the magazines also have an image of an artist. From the pictures of the artists on the contents page you can tell what the main genre of the music magazine is.
