Model Answer 1:
There are so many wonderful websites which I have visited for various reasons. However, there is one particularly useful website, which I have to visit rather frequently,  and it is called trello.com. For this topic, I would like to talk about this highly useful website.

Now, trello.com isn’t exactly like any other regular website that offers information or sells any kind of products or services, rather it is used as a very useful tool for project managers in order to take care of the daily tasks in an office environment.

Before starting to use this website, I didn’t really need to use any kind of project management tools since the IT company, I was working for, was rather small where the tasks were simple and straightforward. But, as the firm grew larger and its tasks became more complex, I, as a project manager, needed some more sophisticated tools to manage the IT projects that I and my team members were working on. It was at that time that I came to know about this particular website from a friend of mine who was working at another company at that time.

Initially, I found the website to be a bit difficult to get around with since I never really had used or worked on such a website, but as I started to play with its features and options, along with some tutorial watching, things, started to look easier slowly and slowly. By the way, the Trello web application has a number of useful options, but Trello boards (used for scheduling and prioritizing tasks), shared team calendar, time tracking (needed or tracking time spent on certain tasks), and file sharing features are the more popular ones.  

Well, the website was very useful to me, primarily because it allowed me to organize my office tasks in a very efficient manner by employing minimum effort. The website was useful to me also because it completely changed the way I used to collaborate with my co-workers, and that too without any extra effort, costs or training!


Sample Answer 2:
Canva.com is a website that I stumbled upon while researching graphic design tools a year or so ago. It's an online platform that offers a user-friendly interface for designing various visuals, including presentations, posters, social media graphics, and more. I found this website to be really useful, and I still use it from time to time.

I came across Canva through recommendations from friends and online reviews praising its versatility and simplicity. As soon as I explored the site, which would be a year ago, I was impressed by its vast collection of templates, design elements, and easy-to-use tools that allow users to create professional-looking designs effortlessly, even without prior design experience.

The website offers a wide array of design options suitable for various purposes, from personal projects to professional needs. With its drag-and-drop functionality, I found it incredibly convenient to customize templates, change text, add images, and tweak designs according to my preferences.

What I found most useful about Canva was its accessibility. As someone who doesn't have a background in graphic design, the platform empowered me to create visually appealing content for my presentations, social media posts, and even personal projects. Its intuitive interface and vast library of design resources significantly enhanced my ability to create eye-catching visuals without the steep learning curve that often comes with professional design software.

Overall, Canva has become an indispensable tool for me due to its user-friendliness and the ability to create high-quality designs quickly and efficiently. Whether for professional or personal use, this website has certainly streamlined my design process and added a creative dimension to my work and projects.
