    Any website’s or app’s design that you encounter can be described as UX (User Experience) design or UI (User Interface) design. UI design is about the way the website looks, and today most sites and apps do not have problems with that. UX-design is mostly connected with convenience while using the product. 

    In order to make your app or website draw users’ attention, we advise you to read this article and find handy tips to develop your own product. The aim is to highlight the user experience design services and answer the below-listed points to help your product become way better.

    UX or UI Design: Which One Is More Important?

    Now, when we have made clear what UI and UX design mean, it is time to discuss what is in priority UI or UX design? Well, for some users UX design plays a bigger role than UI after all. Why is that, you may ask? The answer is usability. 

    While chasing the uniqueness of the website or app, trying to make it extraordinary, lots of the developers miss the main point which is usability. That is why, it is better to think about usability first, then you can begin developing the visual concept. Usability depends not only on global facts, but sometimes on little details, which most people think are not important. Menu items, icons, pop-up notifications – all of these elements give the user an opportunity to reach the purpose.

    In other words, no matter how pretty and unique your product is, if it is difficult and uncomfortable to use, people will go away and find something better. Surely, good-looking design is essential, however, if a user faces the problem while using a product, then no beauty is going to save the day. Nevertheless, if you make some unique and unusual design, then maybe it will draw users’ attention, but trust us, it is not going to last long. 

    Anyway, considering everything that we have mentioned above, there is no definitive answer to what is more significant: UI or UX design. After all, it is crucial to find a balance between these two and develop a product that looks pretty and easy to use. 

    Criteria For a Good UX Design

    Let’s go deeper and seek out what aspects are essential for a UX design to make your product successful. 

    Useful. Any product is purchased to satisfy people’s needs. The user wants to integrate it in the work, to solve a problem or just for leisure. That is why it is utterly important that the expected usefulness of the development matches the final result. If that is not happening, then the product can be considered useless, and it is obvious that it is not going to be used anymore. 

    Usable. Creating multifunctional products is not enough as it may seem at first. Keep in mind that it should be convenient and easy to use. If the product appears to be too challenging to use, clients will not waste their time and energy, they will just find something better. 

    Findable. Needless to say that while using an app or a website, it is inevitable to face some obstacles. It may be technical mistakes or the users just can not find a solution to an issue. In that case, clients should have some place where they can ask for help. Whether it is an official website or a chat, it does not matter. 

    Credible. Earning users’ trust is one of the important parts in developing UI and UX design. First, it is eye-catching design and easy usability of a product. Second, trust is built when users can come to developers for help. 

    Desirable. Solving users’ problems and satisfying their needs are not enough to make the product more preferable. Target audience values brief and catchy design, which makes the product functional and useful. So, it is out of question that interface elements should attract from the very beginning, raising the interest to use it. 

    Accessible. Design should be developed so that everyone can use it. If users have some health issues, try to take that into account and consider that while developing UI or UX design. Doing so, you show your clients that you care about their interests and try to make a product comfortable to use for everyone without exceptions. 

    Valuable. The point is for a product to solve the problem or satisfy the need for which it was created initially. The purpose is to make sure that you provide users with something that actually works and brings people profits, not just a pretty image. 

    What Mistakes Should Be Avoided In UX Design?

    No one is immune to making mistakes. To be honest, mistakes should be made, because it is the best way to learn by yourself. However, we would like to list some common mistakes for you to consider and try to avoid it while developing UX design.  

    First and most important one is thinking about your product appearance only, forgetting about its usability. Most of the products are too functional or too creative. If you make an effort only on developing one of these aspects, your design is going to be inefficient. To avoid this mistake, try to find a balance between functionality and beauty.

    Second, developing your product only to achieve business plans. One more problem which lots of developers face is not thinking through design’s main purposes. What is the targeted audience of your design? What function does it have? Most of the companies focus on reaching business goals and not about how to satisfy people’s needs or cheer up their clients. Try to think about users first, what is significant for them, and how your product will help them solve their problems. 

    Following new trends is another big mistake. Trends emerge every day. However, they do not always give people what they actually require. While developing, try to constantly analyze your product’s effectiveness in order to make sure that your design matches the strategy and is oriented on users. 

    Besides, most of the developers do not do their best while gathering the data and making research on people’s needs. Do not forget to do research and testing on every step of your UX design development.

    How To Become An Expert In UX Design?

    Let’s try to highlight the key skills that will be useful to this UX designer. So, just make notes on what is essential for a great specialist in UX design. 

    The basics of UX design is the people we design it for. If you do not know the users, you will not be able to create a great product for them. Communicating with users is the most direct and powerful way to get a good evaluation of an existing product, feature, or idea.

    Another big plus for a UX designer is an interest in modern technologies. A designer’s task is to build user-friendly interfaces that allow users to understand how to use complex technical products. If you are passionate about current technology trends and devices, you will enjoy being part of the process of developing them and adapting them for comfortable use.

    The next trait which is quite vital for a UX designer is multitasking. Variety is one of the main benefits of a UI or UX designer. One day you learn and work on one task, and the next you work with graphic design to finish layouts. Being flexible and able to switch from one challenge to another is one of the most important designer’s capabilities. 

    It may seem banal, but being sociable and open to people is a must. UI and UX designers feel comfortable and confident while presenting product’s design and not be afraid to defend their point of view. Besides, working on a product’s design requires constant interaction with the colleagues and other team members. 

    Food For Thoughts

    To wrap things up, it is fair to say that effective UI and UX design is something bigger than just choosing appropriate colors, fonts or layouts. It is thinking about the clients and their needs, trying to find a way to solve their problems and be useful for the users. Consider design as a strategic business tool. There is no point in inventing something incredible for your product just to cover up some basic disadvantages. Keep in mind that users and their requirements are in the first place.
