Common Elements

All websites, whether they're microsites created for a specific campaign or sites for long-lasting new products or initiatives, should share certain key common elements to help brand them as Mozilla.

  • The simplest of these elements is the universal Mozilla header PSD for download.

URL

The "One Mozilla" strategy for domain names uses sub-domains for services and sub-directories for products:

  • service.mozilla.org/sub-category

An example of this in on a current site is the add-ons site. Add-ons is a service being provided by the site and that provides the sub-domain. There are add-ons for various products and those are hosted at different sub-directories (addons.mozilla.org/firefox, addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird).

For more information, including details on how to handle exceptions to this policy such as campaign microsites and local sites, please check out the One Mozilla Domain Name Strategy document.
