Short,
sweet, and scannable
Web
writing should differ from
print writing because Web
reading is different from
print reading. In truth,
people don't typically read
Web sites at allthey
use them, scanning
for useful cues and information.
The best
Web content is concise,
scannable, and high in information
value. It gives users a
"quick hit" of
information and shows them
how to get more if they
want it. The best Web sites
are good at delivering these
quick hits throughout, keeping
the information value high
wherever Web users might
navigate.
