  • On large information-rich or product-heavy websites, search is king. Users here generally forgo conventional navigation bars in favor of the search box.

  • • When users scan a page for the “Shopping cart” button or “Register now” link, the first place they look is the top-right corner of the page. Unless you have a compelling reason to do so, keep this functionality in its familiar location, or else you risk slowing down and disrupting the user experience.
    • In most cases, the best way to indicate this difference is by making links a different color and underlining them. In some cases, a strong contrasting color alone is enough; but only underlining or just changing the color slightly is rarely enough and will often impair accessibility.
