CriticalHave a link labeled 'Home' on every page on the site, except for the home page. Usability.gov 5:1 7 pages
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.

Very ImportantAvoid underlined text - people will click on it and think it's a broken link. Usability.gov 10:4 3 pages
Use something other than underlining for highlighting text, because it looks like a link, and users become frustrated when the "link" does not work.

Very ImportantOmitting img width or height attributes makes the page layout jump about as images load. Usability.gov 14:3 W3C 8 pages
This makes the page very hard to read or click while it's loading. Fix by adding width and height attributes to the img tag matching the image dimensions. In responsive layouts, specifying width and height prevents layout jumping because the browser can pre-calculate the final image size when CSS like this is used: img { max-width: 100%; height: auto }

Very ImportantThis page title is not unique. Each page should have a descriptive and meaningfully different title. Usability.gov 9:2 7 pages
Title refers to the text displayed on browser tabs, favorites, and in search engines results pages. If two or more pages have the same title, they cannot be differentiated by users or the Favorites capability of the browser.

ImportantRadio buttons are easier to use than drop-downs when there are 6 choices or fewer. Usability.gov 13:9 1 pages
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.

ImportantUse at least a 12-point font on all web pages. Usability.gov 11:8 3 pages

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. The following are all smaller than 12 point:

  • <p style="font-size: 11pt;" >
  • <p style="font-size: 15px;" >
  • <p style="font-size: small;" >
  • <font size="2" >
  • <font size="-1" >

ImportantUse link text between 3 and 100 characters so it's long enough to be understood, but avoids line wrapping. Usability.gov 10:11 3 pages
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.
