Good Design Is Essential

From , former About.com Guide

This Web site takes a unique perspective on navigation. At the bottom of the homepage are links to help you around the site. If you click on the one that says "Start Here" you will be taken on a tour of different parts of his site one by one. Page one give you an introduction and gives you links to many important pages on his site. When you click on the "More" button it takes you to the next page on the tour that is about his family and family history. Each time you click on "More" it takes you to another page with another theme.

The homepage is done well too. As I mentioned, at the bottom is the navigation. At the top is also navigation except instead of being done with words it is done with images that light up when you move your mouse over them. In the center is a picture. When you click on the picture you are automatically taken to page one from the tour. Everything on this site is on the left and the small column on the right is always blank of text and images.
