Keep it simple

Simplicity does not mean removing useful complex information from your content.
A simple layout of your content makes the information you want to convey easier to locate, understand and absorb.

Click on this link to visit a BBC News web page online. This web page uses a simple layout. It is simple because:

  • The important content is in a single column
  • The menus are separate from the main page content
  • The page has a clear heading
  • The main text is separated into short paragraphs.
