What is a Contents Page?

A contents page is a crucial aspect which informs the reader where to look for each section. It is important to be eye-catching but not over creative as its main purpose is to let the reader easily  locate what they are interested in reading about.

I want to be able to make my contents page clear and simple while also giving the correct and vital information for the audience. In the photo it displays some of my ideas for a design while also including 5 catch phrases I thought of from brainstorming.

What should a contents include:

• Page numbers
• Page titles
• Catchy subheading
• Colour and design
• Photos

While creating my contents page I will keep in mind AIDA and Blumler and Katz ideas.

A- attract     I- interest     D- create desire   A- call to action
