# Skip links on ikea.com

**[Manuel Matuzović](https://daily.dev/sources/matuzo)** · 1 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A brief case study examining skip link implementation on ikea.com. The site uses two skip links: one to bypass the 15-element header and another to skip 11 more interactive elements before the product list, reducing keyboard navigation from 26 Tab presses to just 2. A minor issue with an unnecessary role="button" on the anchor element was noted and quickly fixed by the IKEA frontend team after publication.
