  Writing for the web

People read slower and less thorough on a computer screen than they do on paper. Web texts need to be well-structured and easy to understand.

This practical seminar shows you how to write for the web.

  2. Titles, teasers and leads
     - Meaningful titles 
     - Interesting teasers 
     - Informative leads
     
  3. Transparant, well-structured texts 
     - Structuring texts: the reverse pyramid 
     - Optmizing text structure for scanning 
     - Keep it simple 
     - Use an active writing style
     
  4. Links 
     - Different kinds of links 
     - Links have to be meaningful and stand out 
     - Links: when and where?
     
  5. Search engine optimization
     - How do search engines read?
     - The importance of the right words, repetition and synonyms
     - The importance of titles and links
