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).

  1. Provide large clickable areas
  2. Don’t use underlines
  3. Identify the current page
  4. Space out page links
  5. Provide Previous and Next links
  6. Use First and Last links (where applicable)
  7. Put First and Last links on the outside

It seems like Google is a good example of how to do it correctly.
