| Avoid underlined text - people will click on it and think it's a broken link. | Usability.gov 10:4 | |
|
Use something other than underlining for highlighting text, because it looks like a link, and users become
frustrated when the "link" does not work.

| 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. | | |

| On long pages, provide a list of contents with links that take users to the corresponding content farther down the page. | Usability.gov 7:3 | |
|
For long pages with distinct sections, add a short, clickable list of sections at the top of the page.
This provides a page outline, and allows users to quickly navigate to specific information.

| 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. | | |

| Display default values whenever a likely default choice can be defined. Provide a default selection for SELECT lists. | Usability.gov 13:18 | |
|
When likely default values are known, offer those values to speed data entry. The initial or default item could be the most frequently selected item or the last item selected by that user.

| Radio buttons are easier to use than drop-downs when there are 6 choices or less. | Usability.gov 13:9 | |
|
One usability study showed radio buttons give reliably better performance than drop-down lists for mutually exclusive selections.
If screen space allows use radio buttons instead of lists/dropdowns with fewer than 7 items.

| Use a familiar font (Times, Georgia, Arial, Helvetica or Verdana) to achieve the best possible reading speed. | Usability.gov 11:7 | |
|
Research shows no reliable differences in reading speed or user preferences for twelve point Times New Roman or Georgia (serif fonts), or Arial, Helvetica, or Verdana (sans serif fonts).
Other fonts may slow reading speed.

| Use at least a 12-point font on all Web pages. | Usability.gov 11:8 | |
|
The following are all smaller than 12 point:
- <p style="font-size: 11pt;" >
- <p style="font-size: 11px;" >
- <p style="font-size: small;" >
- <font size="2" >
- <font size="-1" >
For users over age 65, it may be better to use at least fourteen-point fonts.
Never use less than nine-point font on a Web site.

| Use headings in the appropriate HTML order (don't put H1 inside an H2, or H2 inside H3 etc.) | Usability.gov 9:7 | |
|
Using the appropriate HTML heading order helps users get a sense of the hierarchy of information on the page. The appropriate use of H1-H3 heading tags also allows users of assistive technologies to understand the hierarchy of information.

| 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.

| Use link text between 3 and 80 characters so it's long enough to be understood, but avoids line wrapping. | Usability.gov 10:11 | |
|
A single word text link may not give enough information about the link's destination. A link that is a full sentence is difficult to read quickly, particularly if it wraps to another line.
