Text Chunking in Websites

The header text “Getting to the Heart of Digital Accessibility” is in a larger font and is bold which makes it stand out from the other text. It is also centered which, for me, meant that it was important. The first paragraph or chunk of the article had a reduced size font. However, it was still larger than the body text which is something unique and effective because it acts as sort of a pyramid in the sense that the most important information is at the top.  The main body text of the article consisted of two chunks type which made it easier to read and more pleasing to the eye. Following that, a smaller header was used with font that was bold and in red to make it stand out even more.

Throughout the next chunks some words were in blue signifying that they went to a link. It is also convenient when the link to something is right there rather then having to look for it.  The rest of the article was laid out in the same manner of a bold, red header followed by some chunking. In the third to last red header, a few words were put in bold which was then followed by regular text. This occurred a total of four times before the addition of two new paragraphs which were chunked like the others. For me, this gave my brain time to rest in between as opposed to just reading on an on. I would most likely stop reading if an article had just one massive paragraph.
