Consistency and Standards

Be consistent and follow accepted industry standards in your site design. There are many accepted conventions on the Internet.

Here are a couple of them:

  • The local navigation bar is usually displayed on the left of a page. Users may find it inconvenient and annoying, if the bar is moved to the right side.

  • Most users know that blue underlined text represents a hyperlink. Changing the color, or removing the underline would likely confuse users.
