Content Map (Breadcrumbs)

Content map (Breadcrumbs)is a secondary navigation tool that helps users understand the hierarchy of a website and navigate through that hierarchy. Usually at the top of a web page, they show the path from the home page to the current page. Content maps, providing clear internal links improves user experience and SEO.

Example:

On an ecommerce site, a content map might look like this:

Home > Electronics > Laptops > Apple MacBook Pro

This shows users exactly where they are and allows them to easily fall back into a wider category.
