Navigation is one of the best ways to make your site more accessible to visitors. The more visitors that are able to move around your website, the more conversions you will get. Navigation is also important for SEO and ranking on sites like Google, etc.<\/p>\n
You can create lots of menus on Shopify. A dropdown menu is great for users because it creates a rather neat navigational area that is easy to use.<\/p>\n
All Shopify online stores have two default menus. These appear on every page. The first is the main menu and the second is the footer menu. Your store\u2019s theme will vary the display of the menu on your site.<\/p>\n
However, you can have some say over their design. This can be through a theme. Some themes will have expandable or dropdown menus built-in. Or you can use one of the top menu apps that allow for this. There is this option, for example.<\/p>\n
However, if you would like to create your own dropdown menu, and have some technical skills. You can follow these instructions.<\/p>\n
The first step is to log into your Shopify store using your user credentials.<\/p>\n
From the main menu on your Shopify store, you can then go to \u2018Online Store\u2019 and then you should find and click on the option on \u2018Navigation\u2019.<\/p>\n
Now you need to find the option that asks you to \u2018Click on Add Menu\u2019 and select this option.<\/p>\n
Now you can create a name for the dropdown menu that you would like to create. You can name the menu anything you would like, but try to create a menu name that is meaningful and easy to remember. It is highly recommended that your dropdown menu should be the same as the main menu link.<\/p>\n
Now you need to add links to your new dropdown menu. Select the \u2018Add Menu Item\u2019 option and then add the link and the destination. Repeat this as many times as you need to in order to create the menu you\u2019re looking for.<\/p>\n
Once you\u2019ve completed this step, you can click on the \u2018Save\u2019 option.<\/p>\n
Remember that a dropdown menu is a useful tool for your website, but you\u2019ve got to ensure that it is built correctly. All the destinations on a dropdown menu should be related. For instance, when linking to products or categories, ensure that they\u2019re all related. You can\u2019t just keep adding numerous items like About Us, Contact, Blog, and Terms and Conditions together.<\/p>\n
In addition, ensure each label on the menu is clear to what it leads to. Having something like Page 1 isn\u2019t very useful for visitors to your website. Therefore, you need to create labels that are effective.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
