7 ways to improve the readability of a webpage _ Experience Exchange

1. Use the contrast color (using contrasting colours). The contrast here is the contrast between the color of the text and the background color. This way users can easily see the text, reduce reading fatigue. People with visual impairment may not be able to read low-contrast text. You can go to vischeck this site to see how your site looks in the eyes of blindness (or color-blind) users.

2. Turn the text into small pieces ("Chunk up" your copy). Large chunks of high-density text make your users feel overwhelmed with information overload and have a sense of oppression. A few tips:

Use a list (or a table of contents) and subtitle.
Keep the paragraph short.
Use bold or different colors on important points to make it easier for users who are less patient and quick to navigate.
Control text line width (use columns to control text width.)
3. Avoid clutter (Avoid busy backgrounds) to make the text easy to read.

4. A little bit better (less is better). The more clutter you place on the page, the more confusing and distracting the user is, the more you can't focus on reading. The website does not look professional enough. Before you put anything in your mind, do you really want to let it go?

5. Use the recognizable font (strive for a, clean font style for maximum readability.)

6. Do not make the text too small (Don ' t use Itsy-bitsy font sizes). Ant-like text, difficult to read quickly. It's better if the user can control themselves.

7. Make the link more like a link (making your links look likes links). If it's not a standard blue link, you might want to underline it. Not a linked text, preferably not underlined.
