从访问者要完成的事开始
Which user tasks should guide the company website first?
茶公司准备新网站,团队先讨论首页动画。实际客户经常问包装多大、是否可试饮以及怎样联系报价,网站应先回答这些问题。
1 · 先听见真实对话
Colleague: What do buyers need to do?
You: Buyers need to find the pack size and request a quote.
Colleague: Why should these details come first?
You: Without that information, they cannot decide what to ask for.
Colleague: What should the user task guide?
You: The main user task should guide the page content and navigation.
2 · 理解表达在这里做了什么
user task
the specific thing someone comes to the site to do
Requesting a quote is a key user task.
任务应从用户角度描述;“看我们的酷动画”通常不是用户的实际购买任务。landing page
a page built to help someone take one next step
The landing page helps buyers request a sample.
页面有重点不等于隐去重要条件;价格、范围和下一步应清楚。usability test
observe whether people can complete the intended task
The usability test checks whether the information is easy to find.
问“喜欢吗”不等于可用性测试;观察过程且避免直接告诉用户答案。3 · 跟读后,换成自己的信息
Buyers need to find the pack size and request a quote.
买家需要找到包装规格并申请报价。
Without that information, they cannot decide what to ask for.
没有这些信息,就难以决定询问什么。
The main user task should guide the page content and navigation.
主要用户任务应指导页面内容与导航。
We can list the questions a first-time buyer needs answered.
可以列出首次买家需要回答的问题。
保留沟通意图,换掉人物、文件或时间。简单而准确的句子同样有效。

What if returning customers mainly want to reorder?
