Summary of the Parts of the Page
Let's put it all together. Here are the examples again, with all parts of the page labeled:
|
Type of Page and Purpose |
MC, SC, and Ads Highlighted |
|
News website homepage: the purpose is to display news. | |

News article page: the purpose is to display a news article. | |
|
Store product page: the purpose is to sell or give information about the product. | |
|
Video page: the purpose is to allow users to view a video. | |
|
Currency converter page: the purpose is to calculate equivalent amounts in different currencies. | |
|
Blog post page: the purpose is to display a blog post. | |
|
Search engine homepage: the purpose is to allow users to enter a query and search the Internet. | |
|
Bank login page: the purpose is to allow users to log in to bank online. |
MC and SC are important parts of the page. It is easy to understand the need for MC: MC is the reason the page exists. SC is also important. Almost every web page needs navigation links, and most pages can be improved by features and content designed to help users get the most out of the page and website.
Many pages have Ads. Without advertising and monetization, some webpages could not exist.
Do not worry too much about identifying every little part of the page. Carefully think about which parts of the page are the MC. Next, look for the Ads. Anything left over can be considered SC.
