Voice assistants read answers aloud, so content that sounds natural when spoken performs best.

Answer the question in the first sentence using plain words and short sentences. Aim for roughly 30 words in that first answer, then add details below for readers who want more. Avoid jargon unless your customers use it themselves.

Pin Tip

Read your answer out loud. If you stumble over it, a voice assistant will sound awkward reading it too.

Sound Like a Helpful Neighbor

Friendly, direct answers that solve the problem quickly are exactly what voice users want, and they read well on the screen too.
