Keeping a breadcrumb trail on every page is necessary. It is a navigation tool so users can easily locate themselves and find what they are looking for quickly. But don't link a page to itself!
Integrating a breadcrumb trail on webpages brings these benefits:
- provides users with a clear and visual navigational path - they understand their location within the website's structure
- enhanced user navigation
- easy to backtrack to previous pages and explore related content
- reduced effort required to navigate through complex websites
- allows users to quickly access information - more engagement
- improves overall website usability
Additionally, breadcrumbs contribute to better search engine optimization, as they provide search engines with a clear understanding of the website's hierarchy, helping to improve website visibility and rankings in search results.
