What is Navigation Behavior? (2)
Navigation Behavior – Questions to be asked:
- Which hyperlinks are followed?
- How are hyperlinks followed?
- If user can choose: which modes?
- Replace current document with hyperlink target
- Show hyperlink target in new window
- Add content of hyperlink target where the hyperlink source was
- Only forwards or back and forth?
- How much time is spent in a particular area?
- Is the same area visited multiple times / regularly?
Notizen:
If a certain mode is provided and not used, either it does not make sense at that particular place (which may be useful information for authors), or – if such features are never used – it does not make sense at all.
If users use the "back" button a lot, this may indicate that bi-directional links would be helpful. However, clicking a "back" button is much easier than finding the relevant link!
The time spent in a particular area may provide information on how "interesting" or how "hard to understand" such an area is.
If the area is visited multiple times / regularly, this may indicate a good quality of the area.
