NUJ Writing for the Web course

Writing for the web is a different art from writing for newspapers, as I discovered while attending a National Union of Journalists' (NUJ) course in London on December 11, 2007.
I already knew the importance of being concise and of breaking up text into manageable bites but soon learnt to:

• use hyperlinks


• write for search engines


• use bullet points and lists

It is a much more complex subject than I had realised. I'm already tempted to sign up for a web design course!
