Do’s and don’ts
BE CONCISE. As with most website related content, the phrase “Less is More” is important to keep in mind.
Be sure to size your text and images to be similar length and shape for each of the left and right content areas. Try to match the word count to the size of the image if you use an image.
Don’t add too many stories that the story navigation wraps to a second line.
