All the covers I looked at in addition to those I analysed include the following:
- a punchy, appealing front cover
- the left third is important as this is the shelf view
- barcode
- price
- date
- eyecatching coverlines
- puffs/splashes
- colour co-ordination of some sort, usually in title and text
- strong striking main image
- defined font style
- distinctive masthead
Many have a link to their own website. I will try to use these in my cover.
