Cecilie Jenssen - Assignment 3

Analysis & Evaluation of Subway’s webpage

Subway is an American fast food restaurant franchise that primarily sells subs and salads. Subway is one of the fastest growing franchises in the world with 40,597 restaurants in 102 countries. Their webpage (http://www.subway.com/subwayroot/default.aspx ) is colorful and alluring, and provides a lot of information.
Every month they update their information, regarding different offers on different subs and what the month’s “special” is. They do also have a competition in collaboration with the release of “Hunger Games, Catching fire” movie, starting 10.31.13, where you can win your own “victory tour” to Hawaii or to the L.A premiere. In addition, you can win subs for a year, private screening or a VIP concert experience. 
They’re also good at including users, by making it possible and easy to come in contact with customer service. It is also possible to engage by taking their online survey or reading subway FAQS. They have also made it easy for their customers to follow their latest news and offers, by signing up for their newsletter. 
In total, I think their webpage is very user friendly and provide a lot of information. Nevertheless, it would have been more engaging if it was possible to comment directly on their webpage instead of sending an email, or if they posted some of the comments they received from their customers. They could also have created games and events on their webpage, to increase customers’ participation and had more user-generated content.
