In a Best Practices doc, I want to emphasize that a certain component of the Web page display should not be too far below the fold, not be in a tabbed part of the display, not be in in the general navigation area, etc...

In short, the concept I want is, âmake sure that you make this big enough and in a visible enough area that people donât overlook it!â But Iâd like a less wordy word :-).

Don't bury the lede.

But the thesaurus and antonym list is failing me. The related words Iâve found (along the lines of: reveal, display, show, highlight, divulge, reveal, flaunt, expose) donât get at the main point Iâm trying to make, which is simply, âmake it easy for people to find.â

emphasize

promote

push
