Introduction to Content

People have different behaviour when reading online. They dedicate less time, are more task-focused and won’t read everything. As a result, writing for the web is different from writing for printed publications. This is particularly important as people are now viewing web content on a variety of mobile devices.

Content topics

We’ll be using this blog to help you improve your content management, so that your web content is more user-focused, task-driven and sustainable.

You’ll find information about planning content. Topics will range from how people read online to determining the purpose and goals of your web content and calls to action.

We’ll cover writing and formatting content, particularly for mobile. This will include topics such as language, voice and tone and making copy scannable.

There’ll also be posts about asset management, including standards for images and file types.

We’ll be sharing tips from industry experts and will let you know about useful editorial apps and websites.
