What Makes a Good Website in 2025: Essential Elements and Sections

The Header: Your Website’s Welcome Mat

The Navigation Menu: Your Site’s GPS

Imagine trying to navigate a new city with a map that’s all smudged up—frustrating, right? A navigation menu is your website’s GPS, guiding users to key pages like “Shop,” “About,” or “Contact” without a hitch. Clear, descriptive labels and a limit of 5–7 menu items prevent overwhelm, while a hamburger menu on mobile keeps things tidy. Adding a search bar within the menu can help users on content-heavy sites find what they need fast. Poor navigation is a dealbreaker—61.5% of users abandon sites because of it, according to VWO. Take Amazon’s streamlined category menu as inspiration: it’s intuitive and keeps users on track. Simplifying your menu with clear labels and a logical structure ensures visitors explore with ease.
