A Study of Website Navigation Methods

This is a case study of an effective approach to finding an optimal design solution. We used an online study to evaluate six different navigation methods for the same website and chose one based on the results. In the midst of a project during which we overhauled an internal website, we ran into some issues in deciding on a navigation method for the redesigned website. We want to share with you our approach to selecting an appropriate navigation method for the site. Our client favored a style that we predicted would create usability issues; we favored a style that the client wasn't overly fond of.
