boon racoon Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 So in typical fashion, deadline is tomorrow and I'd better look like I've actually made an effort to collect some data rather than just make it up.I'm designing a website and I'd like you all to look at the headings below and select which zone you as an internet user would typically expect to see them in. What would be your gut reaction as to where to go or look on the page to access or view that feature.'Go Home' linkPrimary / main site linksLinks to dead-end pages (contact us, about us, smallprint etc)Search functionLoginLog outSign upEdit personal profileImmediate information about the purpose/function of the siteAvatar / profileThank you.

Simon Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 My work does this, for an extreme amount of money. Good luck with it, if i wasn't doing development i'd be doing consultancy. You should see the same, or similar results, in fact, one of my works seminars has this in it, about how all websites are the same, was the one i attended in fact, really quite interesting.Give me a shout if you want to brush over some stuff, i'm by no means an expert but i've picked up some stuff here and there from the consultants, smart old bunch of people i tell you.'Go Home' link 1Primary / main site links 3Links to dead-end pages (contact us, about us, smallprint etc) 7Search functionLogin 2/4Log out 2/4Sign up 2/4Edit personal profile 4Immediate information about the purpose/function of the site 5Avatar / profile 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
