Dos and Don’ts on how to place the listen button
When we deliver our implementation instructions to our customers, we include documentation on tips of how and where to best place our Listen Button.
As our service differs substantially from traditional tools for text content on websites (such as print, email and/or share options), it is essential to implement ReadSpeaker in web pages in such a way that it is clearly noticeable as an option to use. Yet it should blend in with the overall look and feel of the site. In other words, the implementation should be just right, not overbearing, but also not hidden away so that users can immediately activate the ReadSpeaker listen function.
Over the years we have been able to measure, by usage statistics, which sites are successful with ReadSpeaker and which are not. By taking a closer look at both successful and unsuccessful sites, we have been able to come up with some best practices regarding the Dos and Don’ts when implementing ReadSpeaker Listen Buttons.
