comment How do you effectively steer a user OFF your site and onto another one?
Thank you! The idea of linking out within the nav is something I'd consider "The Nuclear Option" because of its prominence on the page, but it could be very powerful - as long as it's named correctly. Usually I'd want to signify that a link was going to take the user offsite, but in this case there's something to be said for linking to another site as if it's not a separate site - because it's within the same family of sites and therefore can be trusted as much as the linking site. Could be a helpful tool here.

That's definitely a possibility here, and one of the ones I've been working with - promo boxes that suggest (at least temporarily, until the new site designs have been live for a while longer and are more entrenched in the thoughtspace) that the other site is better suited for the visitor's needs than this one. Typically I know you wouldn't want to spend valuable screen real estate on an audience you're not trying to court for your site, but we are trying to court them for our network of sites.
