Tate & National Portrait Gallery

The two websites that I looked at on the Most visited websites in 2011 page on Museum Analytics were:

Tate 
Located:
London, United Kingdom

The website is more white box display model, that I think  that works well.







Categories on the website are: 

  • Home
  • Art & artists
  • Visit
  • What's on 
  • Blogs & channel
  • Join & support
  • Learn
  • Research
  • About

Both have a much more active Twitter feed then Facebook postings, which promotes more interaction with followers rather than the passive involvement of Facebook. The web pages are very different but, interestingly enough they both interchange the traditional 'Event' tab with 'What's on'.
