May 28, 2001Links and Their TypesNielsen (Designing Web Usability, p. 51) identifies "three main forms of links": (1) Structural navigation; (2) Associative (in the context); (3) "See Also lists of additional references." This differs only slightly from the way I categorize types of links: local, off-site and anchor; then, separately, embedded vs. separated list. I think Nielsen is right to consider navigation links (i.e. fixed site navigation, or wayfinding) as its own special category of link type. Comments
