Website Analysis

1. The audience for my website is going to be focused to the employers and families of the migrants. I will discuss how the employers knowingly hire the illegal immigrants and the persecutions that happen against them when they are found out. Also within this perspective I will discuss how if the government was to increase the penalties against the employers how it would affect the agriculture industry. I think that my website will mainly pertain to employers, workers in the Agriculture industry, and immigrants that come here to find the seasonal work. It will show both of the main perspectives of this topic.
2. With my website focusing more on the agriculture side of things the background that my audience needs to have is the basic idea of the agriculture industry and what the immigrants do during the seasonal work. My website will inform my audience of the different laws against employers hiring the illegal immigrants. My website will just be in charge of giving the readers the facts and they can make their conclusion their own way.
3. My audience will be oriented toward my topic because it is informative and it is a topic that many people overlook. It isn’t just a useless website that has nothing to offer. It will be an argumentative website but it will remain neutral and not sway the reader one way or another. The reader will be able to have enough information to go and talk about this topic with other people. I think that the right audience will be interested in but someone that is living in the suburbs in Hawaii probably won’t worry about my topic. I think that the readers will be agreeable in some way because I am making my website very neutral.
4. The main topic that my sources have been talking about is whether or not the illegal immigrants are taking jobs away from many jobless Americans. One side says the migrants are taking away the jobs and not allowing Americans who are citizens to get a job while the opposing side says that Americans won’t do hard labor and appreciate the jobs like the immigrants do. There are also arguments about whether or not the employers get punished enough for hiring the illegal immigrants and allowing them to work.
5. I think I will capture my audience by just stating facts and using resources that people know and trust. I will avoid sources like Wikipedia and other ones that can be unreliable. My website won’t be flashy because it is an informative one and shouldn’t have bright colors or sparkles. My website’s intention isn’t to get them to “listen” to me it is just stating the facts and letting them draw the conclusion of what they want to talk about.
6. The main viewpoint that I will put forward will be leaning towards the Agriculture side since that is the main job that the immigrants go to. My contribution to the conversation is once again just stating the facts and what I know. Every now and again I will state my opinion but it will mainly be neutral. I will talk bad about either side of the argument or anyone involved in this argument just basically show cause and effect. I chose this topic because I worked on a ranch and see a completely different point of view then many people see and I want to know how the migrant’s lives are affected when they are legal versus illegal. Also how that affects those of us who are American citizens and deal with the repercussions of someone who is an illegal immigrant in the country.
