Re: [External Sender] Can site logo be part of main navigation?

Use the navigation roll for a group of links, I'd say 3 or more, that
have a common purpose.
E.g. links in different sections of your website footer.
Give the navigation group a descriptive accessible name using
aria-label, or aria-labelledby pointing to the heading that marks the
start of that section:
<div role="navigation" aria-labelledby="au">
<h5 id="au">About us</h5>
<a href="#">Our history</a>
<a href="#">Our manifesto</a>
...
</div>
(or use the <nav> element rather than a div with role="navigation")
