  • Both are terms of how you design your web application, web site or overall application.  They are both based on user interaction with your site.

    UX is the user experience as an overall measurement.  The better of an experience the user has the more your site is UX friendly.  You can have a great site but is the user doesn’t feel the overall site experience is great then your UX is lacking.

    Websites have been designed with useability, how your site links to all the posts and that was the design strategy.  Changing of the strategy to more than just functionality to include user experience is important.  Web applications have always strives to deliver an intuitive experience which makes sense.  The easy it is to navigate something even if its the users first time the more better the user experience.

    Look to design with good user experience as well as functionality.

  • Several financial analysts had predicted 2011 as a year of recovery and possibly some growth in the economy. However, with widespread government spending cutbacks expected, 2011 may be somewhat early.

    Web site design is quite a fast moving industry. Web design businesses are continuously trying to further improve their skills and their knowledge in an effort to get ahead of the competitors. This calls for a web site design firm to pay close attention to what the likes of Google are doing.

    The pace of everyday life today is incredible. Google has obviously picked up on this because loading speed is now part of the Google algorithm. Some web sites contain huge quantities of information while others not a great deal, and both present challenges. For new internet sites your web design company should know about the most up-to-date Google algorithm and guarantee the website is designed and developed with it in mind.

    Images are everywhere you look on web sites and they are prime examples of loading items which could impede your site. It really is essential that the image file size is kept to a bare minimum and that they are preferably formatted in JPEG and GIF.

    Another obstacle for web-site designers and programmers is to make certain the web site being built works for the different screen resolutions available today. The can vary from 640 x 480 to 1024 x 768 and as technological innovation improves resolutions are simply going to get bigger and much better.

    Additionally there is increasing interest in websites to utilize mobile devices such as the Apple iPad or Samsung’s Galaxy Tablet. Web designers are quite accustomed to having to conduct cross web browser tests. Cross platform testing is undoubtedly a growing element of website design and represents significant possibilities for many businesses.

    The style of websites has changed so much in recent times. At first the net was all about bright flamboyant striking shades and fonts to grab the eye. Now, the top websites are the ones which use fairly neutral colours and fonts which you’ll find easy on the eye and simple to use. Take Google, the world’s most successful site, notice anything?
