Executive Summary

Mega-drop-down menus enable designers to quickly route site visitors to content that resides deep within a site's hierarchy without obligating them to sort through multiple menu layers.

To avoid problems and get the most out of mega-drop-down menus, customer experience professionals should provide clear location cues for users, enable users to move within a section of a site without having to rely on mega-drop-downs, and structure the mega-drop-down design so that the information hierarchy is clear.
