There's just one trap for the unwary to always watch for when using relative terms like "above" and "below" - just check that they remain true in all responsive layouts of the page. Occasionally I see cases where something, that was below in the desktop layout, ends up above it in the tablet and/or mobile layouts! If that happens you should either change the wording, or change how things are arranged in the other layout. In that case it is also worth checking that the order of content makes sense in all layouts, as this problem of above/below becoming untrue in the mobile layout may be an indication that the content order is wrong in one of the layouts. In a case I had a few weeks ago, a final submit button had been placed inside the wrong div, so in the mobile layout it now appeared half way down the page, above content that should logically have come before it.
