Week 3

Unit 3 Response


            It is always so true that “people won’t use website if they can’t find their way around it”. Personally, I think for any kind of good website, the navigation should stand out, clear, simple and consistent so that user can navigate around the website easier. Indeed, if users go to a website that is hard and confusing to look for thing they need; more likely they won’t come back for the website again. Navigation is the heart and the very basic for any websites because it gives us something to hold on to, tells us what is here or not, tells us how to use the site and even gives us confidence in people who built it. Consistency is something needs to be concerned in every pages of the website so that users know whether or not they are still on the same website.  Also, every page needs its name, and its name should be prominent enough to be recognizing by the user. In order to do those or I can say commonly, web developer put pages’ name into tabs to organize the names. Making a long story short, a good website needs a simple, clear engaging navigation. It includes the use of spaces, position of each elements, consistency, indicator and organized content.
