Article Body:
In today’s modern times, writing grows with time. At the onset of website development, writing expanded and created different forms and styles. Standard writing gave birth to web writing. Compared to the former, the latter is more demanding. This is because visitors of a homepage or a site lack the diligence of the conventional readers. 

If you want to your content to be a sure hit, you have to have these web writing essentials:

1. Readability. Patience – that’s what most of the visitors do not have. Thus, you have to immediately give them the information they wanted. Be sure that your font size and color will contribute to its readability. 

Another, express what you want to say in brief and full sentences. Bear in mind that a word can be a sentence. You need not go verbose for the readers won’t like it.

2. Scanability. Scanning is another great probability because online readers tend to scan. To make it easier for them, use bullets, numbering and letters to produce an outlined look. Use frequent paragraph breaks to make the eyes rest at every break. Subtopics can also be had for summarization of ideas.

3. Relevance. Your content must be relevant to your site’s purpose. Otherwise it should not be placed there. To know whether it is relevant, ask yourself if it is related to the topic or site. Is it important to your cause? If it is then, never forget to include it.

4. Error-free. Mechanical and factual errors can be disastrous. They can spoil the visitor’s reading experience or worse, ruin the site’s credibility. Moreover, you have to read, proofread, edit and edit some more.

5. Harmony with the web design. The content and the web design must be in harmony with each other. The responsibility lies on both the designer and the writer. They must work closely together to achieve this end.

6. Consistency. The tone, terms and style must be regular throughout the pages. Inconsistencies baffle and upset the readers.

7. Personality. Every home page must be distinct from all other. It must exude personality which gives them the chance of knowing you or your company.

Content is the king of the website. Be sure that the king will appear regal and pleased.
