Summary

Step 4: Arrange the Categories in Logical Sequences

  • Again, you need to consider what's "logical" to your audience

  • The two most common ways to organize your topics are:
    • From most frequently requested information to least--that's what we do at HUD
    • Alphabetical

  • But there are others…you could organize them by life-cycle, if that's what makes most sense to your audience. Or you could organize them chronologically.

  • Think like your audience - what would make sense to them?
