	Have a link labeled 'Home' on every page on the site, except for the home page.	Usability.gov 5:1
	Many sites place the organization's logo on the top of every page and link it to the homepage. While many users expect logos are clickable, around 25% will not realize that links to the homepage. Therefore, include a link labeled 'Home' near the top of the page to help those users.

	Keep URLs shorter than 78 characters so they don't wrap when emailed.	W3C

	Omitting IMG WIDTH or HEIGHT attributes means page text jumps about as images load.	Usability.gov 14:3
	This makes the page very hard to read while it's loading, and the user may click on the wrong link if it moves as it's being clicked. Add width and height attributes to the img tag matching the image dimensions. Authoring tools like Dreamweaver can automate this process.

	Provide a search option on each page of content-rich web sites.	Usability.gov 17:4
	A search option should be provided on all pages where it may be useful - users should not have to return to the homepage to conduct a search. Search engines can be helpful on content-rich web sites, but do not add value on other types of sites.

	This issue was found on another 5 pages. The evaluation version is limited to showing issues on 4 pages.
	Use italic text sparingly - for one or two words or a short phrase.	Usability.gov 11:10
	Keep runs of styled text to less than 70 characters. When used well, styled text draws attention to important words, but also decreases reading speed by almost twenty percent.
