Website navigation tree chart example.
A website navigation tree is a quick map of the pages a visitor can reach and how those pages are grouped. It is especially useful at the start of a redesign, when teams need to agree on information architecture before discussing visual design. Keep the top level short and name each section by the visitor’s goal, not an internal department. This example separates company information, services and resources, then puts related detail pages underneath. Add deeper levels only where the site genuinely needs them.
