Writing Guidelines for Webpages

One thing becomes apparent with webpage writing; readers want shorter more precise text that is not overly done with promotional writing. To write a more readable and effective text for a webpage it must be concise, scannable, and teh credibility of the website must not be questioned.

  • Concise- text with less information that gets right to the point
  • Scannable- makes important information easy to spot
  • Credible- reader doesn't question the validity of the text

How to Achieve these Guidelines

Concise keep only useful information, tighten language, and cut overly detailed information
Scannable summarize and draw attention to important information, use numering, lists, bullets, shorter paragraphs, headings, and highlight key words
Credible take out adjectives, and only keep information if it is supported by evidence

Helpful Hint

Make sure when cutting information you do not cut too much out of the text. If the information that is vital to understanding the information it must stay in the text.
