Guidelines For Writing On The Web:
Be concise:
Make your text short without sacrificing depth of content. There are good reasons for this. Reading from computer screens is about 25% slower than reading from paper. People don't want to read a lot of unnecessary text, and tend to be lazy about scrolling. With this in mind, you should aim to write no more than 50% of what you'd write for traditional print.
Tips for writing concisely yet persuasively:
On screen, users pick out keywords, sentences, and paragraphs of interest while skipping over irrelevant parts. So write for scannability:
- Use meaningful headings to attract attention.
- Structure articles using headlines, sub-headings and tables when appropriate.
- Break up your text into paragraphs of no more than 5-6 lines.
- Make sure your most important copy (the points that you urgently want to get across) fall above
the screen "fold" i.e appear on the screen without the reader having to scroll down.
Home Page / Welcome
This is the first page that a client will see and the one that gets the most clicks - meaning it is the one that people will see most often.
Try to make it catchy. This is where clients will decide if they want to read on.
*The above is only a suggestion. Also look at any other websites you like for ideas. |
