What is a navigation bar?
A navigation bar is the main menu of links, usually at the top of a website, that helps visitors move between pages.
A navigation bar, or nav bar, is a row of links to the main sections of a site, such as Services, About, Gallery and Contact. On phones it often folds into a menu icon, sometimes called a hamburger menu, that opens when tapped. Good navigation uses short, familiar labels and keeps the number of top-level items small, so people can quickly see where to go.
Why it matters for your business: Clear navigation helps visitors find your services and contact page in a few taps, which means fewer people give up.
