When it comes to intuitive navigation, simple tends to be better. We didn\u2019t focus on creating a flashy design and instead used a mega menu and a simple block layout to make the site accessible. The result is a site experience free of frustration.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cimg style=\u0022height:auto;width:100%;\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/backend.inclind.com\/sites\/default\/files\/media\/images\/2024-01\/image7.png\u0022\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Ch3 dir=\u0022ltr\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EUniversity of Arizona\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\n\u003Cp dir=\u0022ltr\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.arizona.edu\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan\u003EThe University of Arizona\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E is a large public university in Tucson. One of the notable things about its website is how it focuses so much on getting students to apply. When you land on the home page, a bold picture encourages you to become a Wildcat. Along the top of the screen are buttons that allow you to specify your relationship to the school (such as student, prospective student, alum, or donor), apply, or schedule a visit.
