sekundærside

Sekundærside is a term used in web design and information architecture to describe a page that is not the primary entry point of a site or document, but serves as a supporting or supplementary page. The concept is common in Norwegian and Danish usage and generally refers to pages that exist within a broader content structure.

Secondary pages include subpages such as product detail pages, category or archive listings, help or FAQ pages, policy pages, or article pages that delve into topics introduced on a main page. They help organize information into logical sections, enabling users to navigate deep into a site without crowding the main landing page.

In terms of structure, sekundærside pages are typically accessible through menus, breadcrumbs, internal links, and sitemaps. They often share a common template or layout with other pages in the site and use hierarchical URLs that reflect their position within the content tree. Metadata, headings, and accessible navigation are important to ensure these pages remain discoverable and usable.

From a strategy perspective, secondary pages support content depth, SEO, and user experience by providing targeted information without overwhelming visitors. They are especially important for distinguishing different content types (information, products, support) while maintaining a coherent site structure. In translation, sekundærside is often rendered in English as secondary page or subpage, with synonyms such as underpage or child page in some contexts.

Common pitfalls include excessive depth, fragmented navigation, and pages without clear purpose. A well-managed set of sekundærside pages enhances discoverability, context, and overall site usability.
