Street signs and
breadcrumbs: Designing Navigation
Response
It’s a fact: People won’t use your website if they can’t
find their way around it. If you go to a site and you can’t find what you’re
looking for or how the site is organized you’re not likely to stay long or even
come back. You must create clear, simple and consistent navigation.
Websites that seem so simple and clear are actually pretty
complex. If you think about it, trying to organize an entire website with
everything you want to showcase in it and allow the users to find those things
with only 3-4 clicks is pretty damn hard.
I’ve never thought of a website as a store that you’re
trying to navigate through, and how the signs need to be clear and organized. A
customer at a store that can’t find what they’re looking for can become pretty aggravated
quickly. I know I can be that way, especially at Costco.
I’m glad Krug really enforces this thought process of web
design and navigation; this has definitely helped for Project 1- Portfolio
website design.
