Short menu titles are best

Use menu items? Or page with links to subpages?

Focus on topics, not formats like

Songs, Audiobible, not "Audio", "Video"

 “Wedding Cakes” beats “Gallery”

 “Tax Planning Services” beats “Resources.”


Tip 2: Design Your Menu Around a Simple User Journey
Your navigation should reflect your visitors’ top tasks.

 

Before you add fourth- and fifth-level dropdowns, ask:

Can deeper pages be discovered via on-page links?
Can you surface only two or three levels of content in the main menu and let visitors drill down from there?
Can certain content live in the footer navigation instead of the main header?
