Breadcrumbs – the navigation technique that most often appears at the top of the page and is used as an auxiliary navigation within the website. The purpose of breadcrumbs is to make it easier for the user to explore the site to specific pages and keep track of the current location. They are hyperlinks back to pages the user has visited to get to the current page. There are 3 types of breadcrumbs: 1. path-based – breadcrumbs are dynamic and show the actual path taken on the way to the current page, 2. location-based – these are static crumbs that show where the current page is in the site hierarchy, 3. attribute-based – crumbs denoting attributes that contain information that categorizes the current page.
