Ever landed on a web page or app and felt you were trying to crack the Da Vinci code? Maddening, right? But what if there’s a digital knight, all set to steer your app or web app away from this maze? Say hello to UX Writing!
Alright, before you roll your eyes and think “Just another buzzword,” hear me out. UX Writing is kinda like the unsung hero of the digital realm. It’s all about crafting a fantastic digital experience through words. Think of it as the sibling of UX Design but with its heart set on the art of writing.
The goal? Creating easy-to-understand content that users love.
Think about the websites or apps you use. They’ve got text, pictures, maybe some videos or animations. All these pieces together create what we see and touch – that’s called the User Interface (UI). It’s like the front door of your digital business!
Okay, so why should you care? Well, having top-notch UX Writing is like having a GPS for your digital platform. It guides users, letting them know the whats and wheres, ensuring they don’t end up lost in the vast cyber wilderness.
For instance, consider a login page. You’ve probably encountered one that says something vague like:
“Error occurred.”
Frustrating, isn’t it? Now, imagine if it instead said:
“Oops! The password doesn’t match our records. Try again or click ‘Forgot Password‘.”
Much clearer and less hair-pulling, right? That’s UX Writing in action!
Another example? The password recovery flow. Ever clicked on “Forgot Password” and felt more lost than before? With effective UX Writing, you’d get a message like:
“We’ve sent a password reset link to your email. It should arrive in a jiffy! Don’t see it? Check your spam folder or resend.”
A UX Writer does more than just write. They pick the right words to make using a website or app easy and fun.
Ever used an app and thought, ‘This is so simple!’? That’s probably thanks to UX Writing. Having great words is key if you want your app or website to be user-friendly.
