Let’s go beyond politics and analyse the websites of the two presidential candidates of 2024. After reviewing them both my reaction was pure surprise. And not in a good way.

In some cases you can’t help to think where does all that money go. Because it definitely doesn’t go towards a quality web design. This is also why I decided to redesign both website headers and explain my decisions.

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

Let’s review!

The Review

The review will focus on general messaging, security, headers, with a brief mention of the rest of the site as well. At the end I will show you my redesigns of both of them.

Security

Both of the websites use https. That’s a great starting point. However, the Democratic site uses Wordpress which is known for many vulnerabilities. The Republican candidate uses some other, proprietary solution on which the security is unclear.
