A Navigation Pattern from
Patterns for Personal Web Sites

One Jump Home

When visitors want to find something on a Web site, the first place they go is the site's home page. Visitors expect a site to have a Useful Home Page which helps them get where they want to go.

Therefore, on every page of your site, provide a link to the home page.

Giving every page a link to the site's home page makes it easier to maintain a Three Jump Maximum.

Putting the link in the same place on every page helps give your site a Consistent Format.
