Writing for Web

Is writing for the web any different from writing for the print? 

Well, the approach of the readers towards the two mediums is very different and its quite natural that they would have different expectations from the kind of information that they are looking for.

Informa organised a web writing workshop for its employees on 9 January 2009 at which journalist Chris Wheal made a presentation on how to improve the readibility of your website. 

Its important to realise that the content on the website can be accessed by everyone and not just the target audience for whom it is written – competitors, students, lecturers.
