Let’s Go Shopping! (continued)

Just as department stores change their displays each season, Internet stores often change the look of their home pages and links.

Holiday decorations do not prevent you from recognizing a favorite department store, and you will still recognize your favorite Internet stores even when the look of their sites changes over time.

Remember, your cursor turns into a hand each time you place it on a link.

Tab Links

Tab links often appear across the top of home pages and have labels to describe the information they link. Click them to go to that area of the store.

Tables of Contents

Tables of contents are usually displayed on the left side of the store’s home page. Click an item in the listing to go to that part of the store.

Pictures and Colored Text

Links can also appear as colored text or pictures. Click the words or the pictures to continue exploring the store.
