Web searching is unlike the mapping and physical landmarks one is accustom to using to naiagate from one place to another. Navigating the web users do not see landmarks they just appear from point to point or page to page. Utilizing the web sites there is no direction and no clear sense of which direction one is heading ie: toward or away from homepage. Therefore, extremely important that navigation and design of web back to Homepage is easily accessible from each page and link and bring in user back to homepage. Location of homepage should be located in same area of each page. This makes users comfortable when they have sense of where they are within a site. Without navigating interface and marker showing users you are here in relation to overall site the user becomes lost in space, resulting in uninterested users. Well-designed sites build in visual aids which allow users to know they are going place to place. Ie: color terminology and consistent grids .Large sites allow for easy recognition of being outside its boundary. Landmarks are used to provide user with orientation cues as users arrive at pages without a known path. As one is searching the pathways of travel are unseen. It is vital that users can arrive to the page by utilizing key words or phrases. Freestanding hypertext allows users to access single web pages separate from context. Individual web pages with repetitive information and header and footer may be the only part of a site that some users see. A set of principles has been set for document design. These principles are who, which lets the reader know who created it, the document and what institution the writer is associated with .What which is a clear title page. The page title is most important in determining keyword search engines when is the timeline giving the reader information about the age of the document and its worthiness. Be sure to update the date when any changes are made, also be sure to carry version numbers or revision dates. Where; be sure to incorporate homepage URL within footer. Browsing only allows user to see cues of you are located here in this site. In designing navigation and way finding the design teams need to keep sense of context as the viewer field is restricted. Web pages need cues as to context and organization because the viewer only sees small segments of the page at a time. The site needs to use clear navigation cues of hyper links between sites. In using clear and consistent graph and text, the user can be confident they can find what is being sought without difficulty. Users location network needs to take into consideration not to slow down speed by content components ie: text, content management and other data sources which slow down loading of pages. Whether users choose browse or search to navigate the interface should support the user’s sense of their orientation and location within the larger dimension of the site. Search allows users to gradually move through a site and see visual landmarks as passing the hierarchy. When users come to site from an internet search they arrive directly at the page of context. As web search becomes the way of arrival the homepage is becoming decreasingly seen, making it crucial the web site design has visual identity markers and homepage access. It is an important aspect of web to let users known scope of the search by letting the user know if the search result content comes from another source, such as, internet or the whole web site. A good site design offers a good search option. Standard browsing interface cuts out midrange steps in browsing and brings user to page deep inside range of web site. Enterprise interface is a strong frame work promoting group connection and identifies large missions and goals of an enterprise. Enterprise interface design recognizes larger context of enterprise and web in general. The web designs organization of consistent presences largely determines its success. Enterprises need to differentiate themselves from products and services offered using visual web presences. The enterprise must also generate effective projects giving the user a feeling of trust worthiness. Enterprise interface has a set of three primary aims as its consistency standards. One such consistency is positioning. Positioning is important to identity and distinguishes ones enterprise from others. The other two consistencies are coherence and symbolism. In conclusion, navigation, way finding, and interface design all correlate into producing a web site that is reliable and give the user confidence of their location. Parallel to being habitual to navigate and way find due to being a well-designed site.
