How to Write for the Web

Today, I'm simply going to point you to another website. This article was written by Jakob Nielsen. Jakob is widely regarded as the world's foremost usability expert. As a usability expert, his primary concern is not with the way computer applications (and websites) perform or look, but how easy it is for the end-user to use them.

He wrote this guide "How to Write for the Web," that is almost required reading for anyone who maintains a website.

As I know many people don't have time to read the whole thing, you may want to skip to the conclusions section at the bottom which gives you a summary of the findings.

For those with more time, spending some of it on the host site, useit.com could be useful.
