How to place articles
  • It is clearer to place individual articles as cards in a purpose-based guide, not in a blog list. Users are not trying to read news; they are looking for what to do next.
  • Use card names that show both the search term and concern, such as From Student to SSW, When Changing Jobs, and When Renewing.
  • At the end of each article, add links back to country guides, exam information, status of residence applications, and FAQ to help users move around.
