Blurbs: Writing Previews of Web Pages

Blurbs: Writing Previews of Web Pages

Blurbs are brief summaries of what a reader will find on the other end of a hyperlink. Good blurbs don't harangue ("Click here!") or tease ("Learn ten great tips."); instead, they provide a useful sample of the target page, so that a user can make an informed decision about whether to click.
