Thank you so much for your nice post. Nowadays, mobile user is growing more than computer users. So we have to think more about mobile compatibility.
]]>1. Start Using Breadcrumbs. Breadcrumbs are a navigation aid to help orient people within a website. This kind of orientation is especially important if people are directed to deeper pages on the site from external sources.
2. Avoid using tiny menus (or menu icons) on large screens. Menus shouldn’t be hidden when there is plenty of space to display the menus.
3. Always try to put menus in familiar locations. Most of the time users spend their time on other sites. So, Users expect to find UI elements where they’ve seen them before on other sites or apps (e.g., left rail, top of the screen). Make these expectations work in your favor by placing your menus where people expect to find them.
4. Make menu links look interactive. Users may not even realize that it’s a menu if the options don’t look clickable (or tappable). Menus may seem to be just decorative pictures or headings if you incorporate too many graphics, or adhere too strictly to principles of flat design.
5. Ensure that your menus have enough visual weight. In many cases, menus that are placed in familiar locations don’t require much surrounding white space or color saturation in order to be noticeable. But if the design is cluttered, menus that lack visual emphasis can easily be lost in a sea of graphics, promotions, and headlines that compete for the viewer’s attention.
6. Use link text colors that contrast with the background color. It’s amazing how many designers ignore contrast guidelines; navigating through digital space is disorienting enough without having to squint at the screen just to read the menu.
