Development of a Custom Internal Navigation Aid to Reduce User Errors

Users frequently encounter broken links or incorrect navigation paths on the company's website, resulting in a poor user experience and potential loss of engagement. The existing error pathways lead to generic pages without guidance, causing user frustration and decreased session durations.

A mid-sized technology firm specializing in developing user-centric web applications, seeking to improve user experience and reduce navigation errors on their platforms.

• Design and implement an intuitive navigation system that guides users effectively and minimizes dead-ends.
• Reduce the incidence of 404 error encounters by 25% within the first six months post-deployment.
• Enhance user engagement metrics, including session duration and page views per session.
• Create a resilient and scalable solution that can adapt to website growth and content updates.

• Real-time detection of incorrect or broken navigation paths.
• Context-aware suggestions and redirect options to guide users back to relevant content.
• Accessible and responsive interface compatible with all device types.
• Admin interface for updating navigation rules and content links.
• Analytics dashboard to monitor navigation errors and user flow patterns.

• Content Management System (CMS) for content updates
• Web analytics tools for tracking user interactions and navigation errors
• User authentication services if personalized guidance is required

• System must handle a minimum of 10,000 concurrent users without degradation in performance.
