I know content is our primary focus, but I’m often surprised to find:

  • I can’t find a link to your Twitter account
  • You’re social bookmarking buttons don’t work
  • I can’t find any contact info
  • I can’t find an ‘About’ page

And the list goes on.

I honestly don’t think we pay enough attention to the usability of our websites sometimes. So this is where your mom comes in. Well it doesn’t have to be your mom, but someone outside of your little social media bubble should take a look at your blog and report back to you on how intuitive it is. Have them click around and ask questions, you might be surprised what they come up with.
