What is web usability?

Usability. Big word. It's defined as that quality of a website that makes it easy to, well, use.

(Use? A website? I thought they're just supposed to be all pretty and high-tech and umm, just there.)

People use the web to find information on all kinds of things and to do all kinds of stuff. If your website makes it easy for people to complete a task, then the more they'll use your website.

Sound too simple? Well, for a big word, "usability" doesn't quite put up a fight. And that may exactly be the point.

Simple and little improvements in your website's usability can translate into huge returns in your website traffic, potentially giving your organization better exposure, more repeat customers, higher credibility and bigger sales.

Now those are big words we can all appreciate!
