What an assistant reads first

Home pageWhat it says
TitleVacation Cruises – Experience Norwegian Cruise Line | NCL
DescriptionSet sail on your next cruise vacation with Norwegian Cruise Line. Experience cruising to destinations you’ll love. Find and book cruises.
First headingNone in the HTML
OpeningOut here, we steer the ship but leave the rest up to you.

2 changes so it reads plainly as what it is

  1. Make the first heading say what the title says

    The home page has no first heading in its HTML.

    Agent instructions

    On ncl.com, give the home page one first heading (h1) that says, in a reader's words, what its title says the site is: Hotels and travel.

  2. Name San Francisco in the first words

    The site is in San Francisco, and its title, description, first heading and opening never say so. Questions to assistants often name a place.

    Agent instructions

    On ncl.com, name San Francisco in the home page title or first sentence, and in the description, where it reads naturally.

  3. Read it again

    mttr reads the site again and says how it reads now.

An estimate made by mttr against 16 lines of work, from its home page before any script runs. It is not what any assistant says about the site. Rethink the direction with us.
