ABSTRACT

This paper proposed approach to evaluate the usability of the websites based on the usability evolution methods, where the usability requirement is one of the major factors in website if the website makes success or failure. Many of the current websites are very complex and not easy to use, as a result of that the researchers start developing the mechanisms or methods to evaluate the website if its usable or not. Many papers clarify these methods, according to the point of view of the author.

This research proposed approach based on evaluations methods, where this method designed to pass the site in 3 phases during the evaluation process. There will be a certain degree of each stage, where the first two phases Represents 40%, and the last one Represents 20 % due to its importance. The total of the three phases are 100 percent this number gives the percentage of the website usability where it's a way evaluative comprehensive and detailed, so it's not only focus on a certain direction evaluation, but it take into account all the trends assessment such as design principles, user satisfaction and the process of inspection and testing.
