On all these websites the navigation seems to be where is fits the site layout more. Not necessarily on the right, as much as the left. I actually tend to see it varying more between along the header and on the left. That’s where my eye goes first if I am looking for navigation.

Company logos can usually be found on the upper left hand corner, but once again it really depends on the creator. I’ve seen logos in the header, and on the bottom of the website. It really depends on where it fits best with the current website being used.

The header and footer however remains in the same place on every website. The names basically lock each image in their places.
Header- “Head”- Top.
Footer- “Foot”- Bottom.

  7. Is there a search function? Where is the search function?

    What is in the header? What is in the footer?

    Do they have animation? Login/user accounts?

    Where is the site title? Where is the page title (pages within the site)?

    Did the site have an about link? A home link?


  8. So to add to my previous comment the websites all had some type of search function and some sort of navigation.
