The Breadcrumb Trail
What is a Breadcrumb Trail?
You have probably seen these and just didn't know what to call them. They are normally near the top of quality web pages. The breadcrumb trail gives the visitor an idea of where they are, and where they have been, while navigating a web site.
Not only helpful for site navigation, the Breadcrumb Trail provides an extra level of exposure for search-engine crawlers. This is a positive thing because it adds relevance to the website page content.
