Big news from the North Pole! Jingle the Elf has been promoted to manage the Elf-Service Website - a very important mission indeed!
Luckily, Jingle’s been brushing up on Howbeck’s top website tips to make sure the elves can easily find everything they need. Here's what Jingle learned:
✨ Keep it short and sweet – Use short paragraphs (30-60 words) and break content up with clear headings.
✨ Quick links are key – Direct access to important pages like Appointments, Repeat Prescriptions, Sick Notes, Test Results, and New Patients is a must!
✨ Name it right – A page called "Register as a New Patient" performs better in searches than just "New Patients."
✨ Clear opening hours – Write days and months in full, and use “to” instead of dashes (e.g., 8:00am to 6:00pm) so screen readers can easily interpret them.
✨ Accessibility matters – Include details about accessible parking, ramps, lifts, bathrooms, and hearing loops on your contact page.
With Howbeck’s advice, Jingle’s got the elf-service website running smoother than Santa’s sleigh on Christmas Eve!
