So here it is...the end of the semester (YES!) I must admit that this class has been very useful, and at most times entertaining. Going into the class, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I have found that it has really helped me break down the elements of web writing.
Web writing is a very specific thing and contains thousands of niches. It's important to be active and update when using the web, and offer the users the "entertaining information" they are looking for. Also, as a web writer you need to make it easy for users to find what they want on your site and navigate through it. Information can be found on millions of different websites, so it's important to make your site stick out from the rest. K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Stupid). That is the main difference between web writing and other forms of writing; the specific categories and needs of the audience.
All and all, web writing is a very niche oriented and fast-paced form of writing. News and information is continually being updated and improvements come quickly. It's vital to keep up with the changing news and trends, so that your website isn't left out in the cold of cyberspace.
