Useful Website for IELTS Preparation

I found a website that helps my IELTS preparation significantly. The name of the website is English Vocabulary Exercises. I found this website as my friend recommended it to me. I was looking for IELTS material that would help me to increase my vocabulary and the he showed me this website. I really like this website because is starts at an easy level and gradually increases in difficulty until it reaches the hardest level. In this way I can determine what exactly my level is.

After reading the description of this website I found out that the author of this website analysed over 3,500,000 words to finally choose 570 words that are the most commonly used in academic texts. that fact surely amazed me and I am also thankful for what the author has done. Despite it’s great background, it has some shortcomings. I think that this website is not user-friendly, because the user interface of this website seems outdated. It just has a blue foreground as the main color, with white text. It also has some ads surrounding its main content. I don’t think that adding ads inside an academic website is a great idea, but the worst thing about ads in this website is the ads contain click-bait words about another website, so when the user tries to click on an “Academic Writing” sentence it will redirect the user to a page that doesn’t really help with Academic Writing, instead is shows a page full of ads.

I would recommend this website to anyone who are trying to find a start in an IELTS preparation.
