Magazine analysis- Love it

This is a magazine that some teenagers read. It is cheap to buy and weekly, so if teens want to read something new, they inly have to wait until the following Tuesday when the magazine is released in retails. This magazine publishes a variety of different stories, to fit needs of different people and often publishes stories that many teens can relate to.

Many magazines have a title that is in lower case, this magazine is no different from those. The exclamation mark makes the title stand out more, other magazines also have an exclamation mark but the title is often in upper case. The title is pink, giving it a feminine look as this magazine is aimed at females. The pink makes the title stand out more too.

The main story features Jordan. Her name is almost as big as the main title to make it stand out more, the sub-title under her name is to get readers attention, especially the words 'Exclusive baby pics'. Readers would want to buy this magazine to see the 'exclusive' pictures. Her picture also makes the magazine stand out more as the close up of her is directly next to the title, it is the largest image, to go with the largest story. The pink background to the title makes it stand out more, especially with the colours of the titles.

The price at the top left hand corner stands out as the price is big, showing that it's cheap and easy to afford, other magazines can range from slightly lower than this price, to several times the amount.. The bar next to the price, gives readers a basic idea of what is in the magazine. Teens are sometimes interested in real life stories and even more interested in celebrities.
The several side stories may also make the reader want to buy the magazines. The font of the titles help bring the eyes of the reader to them and the pictures also help.
