Here are a few tips about the way people read website pages:
1. People avoid reading large blocks of text. Also, they tend to read the first and last paragraphs of an article. I learned that as a newspaper reporter.

3. Navigation links work better near the top of the page rather than on the left side.
4. Check out these fascinating eyetracking sessions.
