Forum:Link needed to "Home" page

From time to time I try to figure out what would help new users better navigate any particular wiki.

It seems the simplest tool would be a link to the "Home" page. Right now there is no "Home" page link on any Wikia wiki.

Most websites have a "Home" page link on every page of the site. The word "Home" is key since it is the common word almost every web user knows. Even non-English speakers are familiar with that word on websites.

At my main wiki users come from around the world, and they probably come mainly from Google searches. That is the common way users come to my websites. They usually come to particular pages, and not to the Main Page (the home page for most Wikia wikis).

I suggest adding the word "Home" next to the Main Page link found on every page. --Timeshifter 13:06, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, there is. It's called by the wiki name for search engine ranking reasons. Plus, there's always another link on the wiki logo.--AB 13:29, 25 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes, but people don't know that the main page of a particular wiki is the home page. It is "Wikia-speak." And they may not even find the main page. Adding "Home" next to the Wikia name will not effect search engine ranking. Only if it were substituted. "Home" could be added next to the Wikia Main Page name in the sidebar. The logo would stay the same. --Timeshifter 18:00, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

Try this: *mainpage|Home -najevi 04:11, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * open MediaWiki:Monaco-sidebar for edit
 * change the the line that reads
 * to
 * to
 * mainpage|
 * Save and then check the sidebar for your new "Home" link.
