Begin with the part someone will use
Let headings describe the content
Headings provide a route through a page before every paragraph is read.
Use space to show relationships
Empty space can explain which elements belong together.

The later notes cover contrast, feedback and a modest final review. Try one change at a time and inspect its effect on the same page before making another.
