3. Navigation

Website navigation plays a key role in shaping our experiences on the web. It provides access to information in a way that enhances the understanding, reflects the brand, and lends to the overall credibility of the site. And finally, web navigation and the ability to find information have financial implications for stakeholders.

A navigation designer coordinates user goals with business goals. This requires an understanding of each, as well as a deep knowledge of information organization, page layout, and design presentation. This chapter draws a broader context for web navigation that helps you better appreciate not only its purpose but its potential scope of importance.

Speed is an integral part of the user experience, specifically for e-commerce websites as it can cost them millions for every second delayed. Developers and testers strive hard to make a website aesthetically pleasing and functional by adding numerous features, content, and functionalities.

A grid is a division of a layout with vertical and/or horizontal guidelines to incorporate margins, spaces, and columns in order to provide a framework for organizing content. Grids are traditionally found in print work but are very applicable to web design.

A mobile-friendly website is also called a responsive website. What it means is that it is able to adjust to the screen size of the device so that the user experience is improved. Web developers take a mobile-first approach nowadays when developing a website. This means that they design it to be used on mobile devices first before designing the desktop version.
