Menus can be used to organise the navigation of your site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Navigation menus on sites help visitors find and access different sections or pages quickly. They provide structure, improve visitor experience, and guide through through content in a logical way. Menus can make information discoverable without extensive searching.
