Stage 2: Overview
In Stage 2 of the SEO Writing Project, you will build out and optimize the content of your device page. A device page acts like a homepage, helping readers find relevant repair information about the device.
Checklist
You are finished with this stage when your device page:
Includes the required headings/sections (Background, Identification, Technical Specifications, and Additional Information)
Includes thorough information describing the device and its background to educate readers and aid them in identifying their device
Lists at least three helpful, properly formatted links
Is free of major errors in grammar, punctuation, and spelling
Incorporates all feedback from the iFixit technical writing team
Email Us When...
...your device page is complete. We’ll be happy to look it over and offer feedback!
Overview
A device page serves as the hub of all the repair information about your device, including background and identification, links to service manuals and repair guides, and links to relevant outside resources. This screenshot of a completed Hitachi CP-X440 device page is a good example of the appropriate length and amount of information you should provide.
It may look daunting at first, but a good portion of this information is generated automatically. We break it all down for you on the next page.
Example Device Pages
The following are A-level device pages from past student projects. Use these for inspiration, but don't try to copy them exactly. Bear in mind, these example device pages have extra sections (Tools, Parts, Guides, and Support Questions) that auto-populate, so don't worry if your device page looks slightly different.
