This session will discuss:

  • Optimizing web content so both humans and AI tools can easily access and interpret it
  • Designing pages that communicate credibility quickly through layout, messaging and visual hierarchy
  • Creating scannable, action-oriented content that keeps busy audiences engaged
  • Ensuring accessibility and usability across devices and audiences
