Footer

The bottom section of a web page, typically containing navigation links and legal information.

The footer is the section at the bottom of a web page that typically contains secondary navigation links, contact information, social media links, legal pages (privacy policy, terms), copyright notice, and sometimes CTAs. A well-designed footer improves navigation (especially for mobile users who scroll to the bottom), consolidates site-wide links for SEO, and reinforces trust signals like certifications or accreditations.
