Reviews and reports

Remote content review

Book us in for a remote review of your newly created or revised content items.

Content design should include a second content designer looking over a content item final draft and giving objective, constructive feedback, from an away-from-the-project perspective. This is called a 2i (second eye) review.

You may not be doing this yet, as you grow content designer capacity at your organisation. We can do the 2i remotely, with an outside perspective – especially useful for jargon checking! We can also join your content crits, bringing our content accessibility and readability expertise.

Readability, usability and accessibility review

We assess a sample of your content against:

• user needs and acceptance criteria from your user research, where available
• user-centred design best practice (NNg, GDS)
• our content usability knowledge
• WCAG 2.1 content accessibility standards
• Readability Guidelines

Benefits from a content review

1. Make immediate usability and accessibility fixes on a discrete area of content.
2. Ripple learnings across other content.
3. Show stakeholders how content uplift improves visitor experience.
4. Assess how much extra time is needed for content.
5. Decide if staff would benefit from further training.
6. Inform your content strategy.

What’s covered

We can review up to 100 pages, highlighting specific content issues and themes for strategic improvement focus. Reports cover:

• readability, accessibility and usability recommendations
• duplication, style inconsistency, out of date and low quality content

When to get a review

An external view is useful at any time. But particularly: before launch, if you’ve taken over a site, or when creating a maintenance schedule.

When to get a full product content report
