Website Navigation

Website navigation is an important part when creating your money making website. Your visitors need to easily be able to navigate around your site; if not they might get frustrated and leave. Also when your website is easy to navigate around visitors are more likely to return to finish reading certain articles that they were interested in, but didn't have time to read. Search engines also look at how easy your website is to navigate when they send their spiders in to crawl your site. A more easily navigable site could help your search engine ranking, which we are trying to get.

What is website navigation?

Basically it is how visitors are able to get from one page to another in your website. All of your pages should be linked together clearly and easily for your visitors, you never want to confuse your visitors.
The website blueprint of your site should give you a good starting point for interlinking your websites pages. Your site should consist of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 pages, please read article Website Blueprint for more information on this. Within these pages you may also want to add links to related articles so the visitor can easily choose which information they want to see.

You should also think about adding a site index or map to your website, basically a site index is a list of every page in your website please use our Site Index as an example. You should add all of your pages to your site index broken down into related categories. You should also add a small description of what the visitor will find on each page. A site index is especially good to have when it
comes to search engines, search engines will pick up on your site index and see that your site is easy to navigate.

Also remember to add your income outlets into your navigation. Your main goal is to navigate your visitors to these links; this way your site can generate an income.
