A subheading can be a reader’s best friend.
Long text can very quickly turn your audience off. If you break it up with subheadings, the document seems more manageable.
Subheadings also serve to draw attention to your key points. If your reader likes to skim through documents, sub-headings act as sign posts highlighting important ideas and encouraging the audience to stop and read more.
Use subheadings to make your documents reader friendly.

I love sub-headings Shandel but I'm never entirely sure of the best relative font size for them in relation to headings ad normal text... should I bold... should I change font... what spacing to use before and after - any tips? Barb Blashki
ReplyDeleteHi Barb,
ReplyDeleteI suggest using the same font and size as the text and just bolding subheadings.
Thanks for your question!
