How to Create Effective Navigation Design?
There may be a number of website and mobile application development companies USA. But not all websites and mobile apps are
getting success. The role of navigation in both websites and mobile app is very important as this is the way of interaction between the
user and the website or app.
Now we will discuss about only website, as it is must for any business, institution, or organization. The navigation acts like a
foundation for a website. If the foundation of the building is not strong, the building will collapse, irrespective of how beautifully
looking the website is.
There are several rules that should be considered while developing a navigation design. Let’s see these rules-
1. Finalize the Information Architecture (IA):
For a big website, finalizing the Information Architecture that is the content or information which will be on your website is the first
thing you should do before designing the navigation. This will be helpful while creating the navigation as you can choose the
important content that the visitors should visit first.
2. Choose the Right Orientation:
As the computer screen is normally in the landscape format, keeping horizontal navigation makes sense. But as the trends are
changing, we have to think about the category of your website before deciding the navigation.
The new eCommerce websites are coming to the market with the vertical navigation as it is easy to keep more titles and subtitles more
conveniently.
3. Keep it Simple:
Simplicity is the key of navigation. The comfort of website for visitors depends upon the navigation. Having a crowded design with
lots of choices will spoil the easiness of using the website.
4. Use Titles and Sub-heading that are Common:
It is important to use the main titles and subheadings in the navigation list, which will be useful for the visitors to go to their desired
content easily. The purpose of using general terms in the navigation which visitor can understand and lead to their desired destination
will fulfil the visitor’s purpose of visiting the website.
5. Lesser the Options, More Effectiveness:
Keep the number of menus less, but make it sufficient. The more menus you’ll create the more complex your website will be. Creating
sub-sections to the main menus is less complex to navigate the website.
6. Consistency is Important:
The user friendly website is that which maintains the consistency all over the website. The same name, colour, font, design and style
of the navigation should be maintained for all pages of the website.

2. Last But Not Least:
As the new technologies and devices are having their own challenges, the rules for designing the navigations are also changing. The
rule of horizontal navigation for responsive website is being broken by the eCommerce websites with the vertical navigations.
So there is not a single way for the perfect site navigation. But it depends upon the type of your site, purpose of creation, as well as the
visitors you targeted for your site.
The universal navigation rule is the navigation should be simple, interactive, predictable and well organized.
