Link "Home"

Question

User interface

Is it always worth doing in the main menu "Home" (home, home, index)? Is it worth sacrificing beauty in this case, for the sake of convenience?
At the same time, the link to the logo is by default made a link to the main one.

Answer 1

There are a lot of exceptions, you can not use it, you can describe the design and structure more specifically.

Answer 2

You can do it, but it’s more correct to make the “Home” link inactive on the main one. If the resource is frequently updated, the logo can be made active everywhere.

Answer 3

I think yes. Not everyone knows what to click on the logo - you will go to the main page. Out of habit, I first click on the logo, because faster if it doesn't work, I leave the site :) (I'm looking for text)

Answer 4

The de facto standard on the Internet - if there is a logo at the beginning of the pages of the site, then clicking on it will lead to the main one. Only harsh "post-Soviet" sites do not adhere =)

Answer 5

Indeed, not everyone knows that the logo = the transition to the main page. Especially older people.
PS Probably, according to the laws of usability, your logo should sound like “Go to the main page”))

Answer 6

Enough links from the logo and at the bottom, in the "credits" or at the end of the page. The link itself in the main menu is no longer relevant, unless it matches the "News", "About" section, etc.

Answer 7

You can check where they will click most often using the "map of clicks / links" in Yandex metrics, and then choose what you need IMHO
