E-comto find your way around the Internet, a Web site, or an HTML document.Research has shown that people navigate in a certain way when reading content in a Web site, and certain standards and conventions of navigation are emerging for Web site design. More important than anything else is functionality: visitors want to find the information they are seeking quickly and easily, and are not particularly interested in style.The most basic design convention, termed “essential” or “global” navigation, holds that every Web page should have a set of essential navigation tools that are visible when the first screen loads, linking to key areas within the Web site. Essential navigation should contain links such as Home, About, Products, Customers, and Contact.It is also important to let visitors know where they are on a Web site, with each page clearly displaying what part of the overall classification it represents. If it is the home page, for example, this should be made clear; or if it is a page dealing with pricing information, the heading at the top of the page should say so.Users also find it useful to know where they have been on a Web site—usually done by changing the color of hyperlink s that have been clicked on from blue to purple. -

5 Web site classification
E-comthe organization of content on a Web site into different categories, so that it can be identified and found easily by a user. Classification is a particularly important form of metadata, as a Web site with poor classification will be difficult to navigate and of little use to the visitor.The top-level classification of a Web site expresses, in the fewest and simplest words possible, the nature of the business. For example, is it selling “products,” “services,” or “solutions”? Are its customers “home users,” “small businesses,” “large businesses”? It is important, if possible, to avoid going more than five levels deep in further classification. The more levels there are, the more clicks will be required from visitors to find what they are looking for. It is also best to avoid having too many documents under one classification: more than 50 becomes confusing, and it would probably be better to break down the classification further. -
