This article shows you what the design of the three basic pages of the website is, the content is concise and easy to understand, and it will definitely brighten your eyes. I hope you can get something through the detailed introduction of this article.

How many pages does a website / software need? I think it's "3 × n".

3 basic pages

To some extent, the information architecture is the arrangement and combination of these three pages.

1. Landing / navigation page

Usually the home page of a website assumes this role. The following picture is taken from "hao123", because they almost have only one navigation function in the whole station, which is typical.

2. Consumption page

This is the destination for users to visit our website. I used to prefer to call it a "content page", but usually users need to stay here for a relatively long time, in my opinion, this page "consumes" our time. Web2.0 Douban is no exception. We have found half of the ideal books and will read the relevant introductions carefully.

3. Interactive page

Interaction pages are the highlight of interaction designers, and they all rely on them to make complex processes simple.

Of course, the work of information architecture is not that simple.

The complication is that these pages usually do not simply arrange and combine, but merge with each other.

Consumption page + landing / navigation page is the most common situation

Since the advent of great search technologies such as Google, the way we browse the web has changed dramatically, and I may directly find what I am interested in. For example, in the following figure, the first search result is the page of Douban just now, so that you can reach it with one click. Therefore, each consumption page may be a landing page.

Therefore, the consumption page also needs to be added to the navigation. If you take a closer look at Douban's page, you can find the navigation.

Try not to combine interactive pages with consumer pages and navigation pages.

This is an example from apple. After shopping, the billing page only provides the leading airline as an "emergency exit", allowing users to terminate the shopping process. A help page is also provided to support this process. Then there is the information that a small amount of payment needs to refer to.

The registration page and login page should abandon navigation completely. Log in to or to register, there is no other choice.

The above content is what is the design of the three basic pages in the website. Have you learned the knowledge or skills? If you want to learn more skills or enrich your knowledge reserve, you are welcome to follow the industry information channel.
