I have noticed a trend in websites using big detailed footers that
contain site maps, but a lot more, like a mini-homepage. Look at the
bottom of these two pages for example:
http://www.americanidol.com/
http://seekingalpha.com/article/131737-five-ways-this-bubble-may-end
I understand this has something to do with SEO, but there may be more
to it. Have others in this community investigated this novel UI on a
usability or wayfinding basis? My first assumption is that they are
mostly ignored by users, and not so useful down there, but I'm
wondering if there's anyone who can shed more light on the subject.
