Boot Camp

Web Authoring Boot Camp
Basic web page layout
Some websites leave much of the banner area empty, with only a logo or website title.
Others use the banner area to add extra functionalities, like a site Search input box, a hotlink
promotion to something important, a randomly-changing phrase to seem dynamic,
etc. Some websites even do away with the top banner altogether, using the upper right or
upper left side of the web page to place indentifying information above vertical navigation.
Navigation Page Segment
The navigation is critical, and should be prominent, consistent through the entire website,
and have excellent contrast and clickability. Your visitor needs all this to reach information
elsewhere in the website. If it is at all confusing or misleading, the visitor is likely to
leave.
