Pagination tips
Posted by Dave | Filed under Usability, Web design
How do you handle multiple pages of search results on your site? Smashing Magazine has seven tips for presenting your users with easy-to-use page numbering (as well as a few bad examples).
- Provide large clickable areas
- Don’t use underlines
- Identify the current page
- Space out page links
- Provide Previous and Next links
- Use First and Last links (where applicable)
- Put First and Last links on the outside
It seems like Google is a good example of how to do it correctly.
