Description​

A navigational landmark is missing on the page, which is essential for providing a clear structure for users, particularly those using assistive technologies. Landmarks help users navigate the page more efficiently by identifying regions such as navigation, main content, and sidebars.

How to fix​

Add a navigational landmark using <nav> to wrap the navigation links. For example: <nav role="navigation"> <ul> <li><a href="#">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#">About</a></li> </ul> </nav>.
