In the end though I generally end up putting the usual stuff like “Privacy Policy”, “Contact info”, and “Copyright”.
I like the Boagworld footer in the main page that lists “sites I like”. I also like the artypapers.com footer. They have links to all their previous versions. Very cool.

When I’m on a website and I’m looking for a sitemap or a contact me/feedback link, the footer is normally the first place I look. After all – this is where most sites shove this information, why would this site be any different? The footer’s a place where things are simpler – no need to scan around a page looking for the correct place to click. I know exactly what link I’m looking for so give it to me fast! So consider adding those simple features in the footer as well as somewhere nearer the top of your site.
