Can We All Agree To Stop Saying “Click Here”?
You’re going to click here. Of course you’re going to click here. How could you not? The link says “Click here”!!
- Click here to register
- Click here for a list of services
- Click here to learn more
- Click here to go find that thing that should be right here where we’ve placed the words click here
The web is all about clicking. Users know what a link is and how to click on it (or press it if they are on a touch device). I think it’s safe to abandon this tired phrase and just get to the point. Why not just say:
- Register
- Our services
- Learn more
- [put that thing that should be right here]
I think this would make the world a better place or at least a place with better online user experiences.
