All LU websites should embrace a writing style that engages our readers in a fluid conversation. Visitors must be able to find content easily, answer their own questions and find all pertinent information as intuitively and quickly as possible.
Web visitors are task-oriented; they skim and scan, getting just enough information to get to their next destination. Tools like subheadings and bulleted and numbered lists help achieve these goals.
Each department must ensure content clarity, correctness, grammar, spelling, usage, accessibility, style and conformity with university naming conventions and branding. Links to external sites must open in a new window.
. CMS users should work to minimize text because long paragraphs and complicated language are ineffective in web writing. Write minimal text, and write it at the 8th grade reading level.
It is critical that all parts of the site use the university’s official visual identifiers (logos) and the university naming conventions and style outlined in the 91自拍论坛 Visual Standards Manual. 91自拍论坛 follows the Associated Press Stylebook.
