What is User Experience (UX) Writing?
In the UX writing world, UX writers use their words like magic. A user uses the magic words of the UX writers. A user can’t even imagine the short text/instruction in the interface of an app/website/ or a digital product written by a UX writer. However, the users are using it.
There is another writing form called copywriting. UX writing and copywriting have some similarities. Because both of them are in the writing world. However, these two types of writing are totally different. Copywriting is a marketing role. On the other hand, UX writers write a microcopy in a website/digital products/app that helps the user to navigate the product/app/website.
A user experience writer does the plan first of what he/she needs to write. The microcopy will seem that the UX writer knows the user!
A lot of users in the virtual kingdom. A user experience writer creates a microcopy, which is very easy to understand to the user. Users include different ages of people, different abilities, mentalities, backgrounds, identities, gender.
