When writing online it is a good idea to present the most important information first. When reading an outline vs a full text article; the readability is far better in an outline. The outline is easy to read and conveys all of the information the full text does just in a bulleted way. Readers can easily locate what they are looking for in an outline and when they find it, they can go to the full text for the details. Links are like the full text. Practice writing in headlines and subheads to make finding information easy, and link to other good sources to give what has been written more detail. | When writing online it is a good idea to present the most important information first.
