Contents page analysis - Mens Health


The contents page is very appealing and well laid out. The date is well displayed and the contents title has its own strap line, this feature I like.
Each section has a sample spread to show what looks like and follows a highlight reel format. Also, at the bottom of the page more spreads are shown in a similar way of the ipod album slideshow. This shows the sort of technology men reading the magazine own and are used to. Furthermore, the contents page is colour coordinated to the main magazine, which are featured on the front cover and are themed for the month.

There are also promotions and paragraphs to entice the reader to certain sections, as well as, helping people that are only looking for that specific segment in the magazine to find it with ease.
Additionally, the same colours used on the front cover are carried through to keep the same housestyle. However, the typeface is similar throughout the contents page unlike the front cover.
