Start with a question

Imagine a small team building a scheduling tool. Their feature page lists calendars, reminders and availability. It describes the software, but leaves a visitor wondering which problem it solves.

For this example, we would start with one question: how can a team find a meeting time without a long thread of messages? That question gives the page a job.

Make the answer concrete

Instead of opening with “Powerful scheduling features,” our example page opens with “Find a meeting time your whole team can make.” A short walkthrough then shows the choices a visitor would make.

The goal of this exercise is clarity. A specific title is a way to explain the page, not a promise of a higher search position.

Choose one change

Read one page from the perspective of someone who has never used the product. Write down the question it answers, the evidence it provides and the action it offers.

If those three things are hard to identify, choose one to improve first. Keep the old version so you can compare the wording after the change.
