Relevance and Support

Revision as of 23:52, 13 November 2012 by Lewissteven (talk | contribs)

When writing for the web having relevant sources and links allow for a more creditable site

Dated Pages

Dates on every page or article allow for the viewer to know when the post is made or updated

  • Posted dates also increase credibility for the website, and without them the viewer will not know if the site is being updated weekly

Outside Web Sources

Content links to outside websites allow for the website to be creditable

  • Linking to non-creditable

Relevant Content Links

Having a source to an outside webpage about kittens, for example, on a Writing for Digital Media website does not apply and is not relevant

  • "Ideal website content should be understandable, relevant and helpful to the site- visitors."
