Micro Interactions – Are you engaging your website visitors?

Micro interactions are the latest (possible biggest) UX trend to be recorded so far, thus critical for modern design which can’t go without them anymore. We are surrounded by micro interactions, as they are present on every website, app, or program we’re using.

Web design trends: 2018 will be about negative space and typography

In 2018 designers will be making greater and greater use of negative space. Particularly on mobile, speedy, light-weight pages are essential. Flashy, gimmicky design is passé and even images are becoming old-school. Everything on the page is there for one purpose: To increase conversions.

Grow your business with a responsive, mobile friendly, website

Responsive websites are viewed comfortably on any device available. Users of these websites should not need to resize or pan in order to make sense of the content they view. The need for scrolling should also be reasonable for such a website. Many organisations serve entirely different versions of their websites to users using mobile devices and desktop computers.

As many people now view web pages on devices other than desktop computers and on a variety of screen sizes, you can increase the number of people who are aware of your business and develop a good impression of it. One reason for the increase in popularity of alternative devices is that they are very convenient.
