- 15. Why did we need a new website? • • • The problem Overlapping content with no links Content did not addressing the users’ key questions Difficult to navigate and not prioritized • • • How did that happen?

- 30. #3 Developing a concept and tone of voice
- 31. Going through user research and goals @WilhelmJA Front end developer @ThordFoss Graphic designer @EirikHafver Content strategist
- 34. Which ideas are connected? What should we take with us going next?
- 35. Hypothesis: The users ask Google and not all of the answers they get are trustworthy. What does the diagnosis entail? What are my chances? What did the doctor really say? How do I avoid getting the same disease as my mother? The answers exist, and behind all the statistics, doctor’s coats and bureaucracy there are human beings wanting to help.
- 36. Answer: Knowledge kills fear. The Cancer Society’s website is a natural authority on the field. You get verified answers that are easy to understand. You can see who says what. It’s not a facless institution, but competent professionals with a name and a face.

- 52. A new approach: The Core Model • • • A lot of your users will never see your home page. They get there via Google, social media and links We have to stop using hierarchy and categories as our starting point We need to start with the answers to your users need, and work from there
- 60. Using the core model • • The core • • Core pages are where your users solve their task - and you reach your objectives. Good ways in and making sure there are no blind alleys, becomes more important than structure and hierarchy The core is the same on all devices Letting the user finish her task first, lets us better guide her next actions
