Best Practices
We aim to write for everyone, meaning our content must always be consumable in a number of different ways.
Active vs. Passive VoiceIn sports, you need to be assertive — and the same goes for writing. Here’s how to keep your language punchy and avoid the passive voice.
“Your,” “My” and Personal PronounsIn general, we like to avoid using pronouns. But exceptions can be made for some touchpoints. Here’s when and how to use them correctly.
ContractionsUsing plenty of contractions is a simple way to keep things human and conversational.
Greetings and FarewellsGreetings and farewells have a real impact on the feel of an email. Find out how to open and close or when to opt for a CTA instead.
Organization, Team and Event DetailsWe write about organizations, teams and games a lot — go figure! To keep those details consistent across our entire content ecosystem, follow these guidelines.
ListsWe like to stick to just a few formats for bulleted and numbered lists. Read on to learn about parallel structure and how to properly punctuate list items.
Parallel StructureParallel structure helps your sentences flow, keeps information consistent and clarifies each item in a list. (Just like that!)
LinksIn-line links and CTAs are formatted differently. This section covers all the details on both.
Meta Titles & DescriptionsThink of the meta title and description as the first impression visitors get of our web pages. We want to be descriptive and follow specific formatting guidelines.
