7. Dropdown menus are good for reference websites because they provide faster access to a lot of content.
But if you want to funnel people to particular conversion goals, you probably don’t want them deep linking
to random pages on your website. In that case you want main links that direct them to the landing page of
each main link and only display sidelinks after they have determined they need more information relevant
to their agenda.
What type of menu do you need?
Main & Sidelinks Dropdown
