User Experience Myth Or Truth: The Three-Click Or Tap Rule.
Just ran across this article again and thought it was worth a re-share. It’s a very good primer on why the three-click rule is mostly bunk.
What the article doesn’t go into is something that can’t be solved here either and that’s the amount of content that so many organizations insist on loading into their websites. It bogs down SEO, it slows down effective IA and it makes effective UX almost nonexistent.
Think about what pages of your website get the least attention. Yes, the LEAST attention. Now, ask why you have them. Is there a reason to keep an enormous section of your site up and running that no one has visited in the last six months?
There you go. Today’s ponderable.
