In this (web design) respect, I will always give more importance to website’s navigation. It should not be of JavaScript which will be not readable by search engines, with constraint that even upto now, major search engines including Google, Yahoo and MSN are not capable to read most of JavaScript coding. So, html navigation is always going to be better than any other navigation type. It must have all important links of your website and should be easily readable by search engine spiders.

Don’t forget to include a Site map, even Google recommends it in its part of Design and content guidelines in the recent Webmaster Guidelines Update that “Offer a site map to your users with links that point to the important parts of your site. If the site map is larger than 100 or so links, you may want to break the site map into separate pages”. Even, it’s always a useful part in Search engine optimization of a website which is always good for both visitors and search engines.

Our past experiences suggest that site’s navigation & sitemap should always be in a Search engine optimizer’s hand. A search engine optimizer or a web marketer will know better how to use your targeted keywords in navigation with necessary keyword density. This is what we can say – Optimized Site Navigation, having all your important keywords in your navigation which is clear in all ways to your visitors as well as search engine spiders.

So, have an optimized navigation system in place for making your visitors & search engine robots happy.
