Half the content will do just as well, remove:
- 'Fluffy', 'Welcome' text, or give it a page of its own
- Marketese, boasts (both bad for site credibility)
- Metaphors, similes or figures of speech
- Jargon, scientific words, foreign phrases, puns
- Do not use a long word, when a short word will do
- If you can cut a word out, cut it out
- Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous
Generally, you can remove 50% of the words without affecting the meaning of a web page.
The remaining content can also be organised for maximum readability and usability
