User Testing on my website

To test my website I out I did some small user testing asking 5 people 5 questions about the site, to see if they could navigate around, find information or links and also find it easy to use. 

The questions I asked were - 

• Can you find the rock types gallery ?
• Can you find the Red tailed hawk in the wildlife page? 
• Can you navigate to the wildlife page without using the standard navigation?
• Can you find the information on Erosion?
• How quickly can you navigate to the bottom of the history pages info?

I picked these questions as they tested out the pages and features of the site I wasn't sure about as well as seeing if my navigation worked and people could get round the site easily. 

The results were pretty good people could find out the information and navigate to it well and without getting lost so the basic structure of my website was working. The main issues I had was the tab feature as it did not load automatically as you click on the page this confused some people whilst answering question 1. Also the scroll boxes I had on the website did not work as well as I hoped and people found these annoying to use. 

Overall using testing was successful and gave me things to improve on before the deadline.
