Best Practices
Number of Links
- Ideal: 3-5 links
- Minimum: 2 links (fewer looks sparse)
- Maximum: 6 links (more becomes crowded on mobile)
Link Order
Prioritize links from most to least important:
- Privacy Policy (often legally required)
- Terms of Service (legally required)
- Shipping Policy (high customer interest)
- Return Policy (high customer interest)
- Contact/Support (helpful but optional)
Mobile Considerations
- Links automatically wrap on small screens
- Test on mobile to ensure readability
- Shorter link text works better on mobile
- Consider 4 links maximum for best mobile experience
Link Text
- Keep text concise: "Shipping" not "View Our Shipping Policy"
- Use standard terminology customers recognize
- Avoid jargon or internal terminology
- Consistent capitalization (Title Case or Sentence case)
