    Reiss: “The truth is, most online readers don’t care much about how web writers tackle grammar, spelling, and punctuation as long as they get the information they need. That said, good grammar does build trust in your organization. Proper spelling does, too – so proofread your text and ask a professional copywriter to look it over if at all possible.”

    Reiss’ 20 tips:
    1. Kill your darlings
    2. Apply George Orwell’s rules
    3: Build shared references
    4. Write front-loaded paragraphs
    5. Accept that people read differently on the Web
    6. Respect levels of detail
    7. Don’t make things too granular
    8. Define your goal
    9. Minimize instructions
    10. Eliminate ‘happy talk’
    11. Be objective
    12. Be personal
    13. Be concise
    14. Avoid secret language
    15. Make stuff scanable, skimable, usable
    16. Write communicative subheads
    17. Write accurate labels
    18. Go back and edit your work
    19. Remember to write the ‘invisible’ text
    20. Don’t let anyone talk you into increasing keyword density for SEO

    Nielsen: “Research on how users read on the Web and how authors should write their Web pages.”
