How a website connects its webpages to help visitors navigate that site. Website navigation comes in a few different forms, including: Main Navigation: The major topics or subjects your website is focused on. For instance, on SEJ our Main Navigation consists of SEO, News, PPC, Content, and Social. Secondary Navigation: Topics related to the main navigation. For instance, on SEJ secondary navigation includes links to webinars, podcasts, guides, SEJ Summit, and other topics. Footer Navigation: Typically this includes links to pages that contain important informational resources about a brand or business. These pages usually aren't important for ranking purposes. For example, SEJ's footer navigation links to our About Us page, privacy policy, and our various social profiles. Related Links: This area usually appears in the right rail or beneath content. It might be called Most Popular, Most Read, or Trending Now. Content Links: Links that appear within your main content (e.g., articles, landing pages). Breadcrumb Navigation: This type is less popular than it once was. Essentially, each webpage shows a trail to help quickly tell visitors where they are on your site. For example: Home > SEO > Link Building > What Is Website Navigation? Also known as: Internal Links (or Internal Linking), Site Architecture
