Web Site Design Process

Navigating Your Web Site

How are your web site visitors going to find their way around your web site? You have your site structure set up now you need to provide a navigational system that makes sense to your visitors and provide them a structured way to navigate your web site.

If you look at the sample Flash text below, you can see what happens when you rollover it, however, if your visitors do not have the Flash plugin installed then they won't see it.

Your navigation system should be contain good, relavent descriptions of the pages that the links will take your visitors to. In addition, the pages the navigation links go to needs to contain information that makes sense for the visitors. I would avoid using Flash Animation or Flash buttons as your primary navigation source unless you have additional navigational links that do not use Flash listed on your pages.

Now let's look at your web site goals.
