What problem does it solve?

Site architecture design turns chaos into a clear page hierarchy, navigation structure, and consistent URL plan so users can find what they need and search engines can understand your site.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Navigation design & URL strategy: Specify header/footer/sidebar navigation patterns, breadcrumb rules, and human-readable, SEO-friendly URL structures with example patterns.
  • Internal linking system: Create a hub-and-spoke internal linking plan plus an orphan-page/link audit checklist to prevent “dead” pages after restructuring.

Quick Start
