Hi guys! How are you all doing? We hope that all is well at your end and that you are also having a great time reading our blogs and making the most of them too. In today’s blog, we will focus on what elements make a good user experience design and we can’t wait to share everything that you guys need to know to make the most perfect user experience design but before we do that, we would like to take a moment to thank you all for the love and support that you send our way and for also making sure that you are sharing our blogs with the people that you love and care for. And we would love to see more of that happening in the future as well.
First things first; a good user experience design or UX design is something that was created while keeping the end user in mind. We would like to mention that several elements must be focused on when you are creating a UX design for example; the needs and the preferences of the user. In addition to that, you would also like to pay attention to the goals of the users that they would want to achieve through a design.
In this part of the blog, we would like to talk about how you can work on your upcoming UX design projects by keeping them user-centered. Make sure that you read the blog till the end to know all about it!
1. User-Centric
Since this has been established that a good UX design is something that is created by keeping the user in mind, we would also like to mention here that you can get to know your end user by conducting detailed research on them. You would want to know the things that they are interested in so that you can build user personas and then utilize that information to create your designs. It is also important that you keep updating your data sets over time because more and more users will add to your audience that you must target.
2. Intuitive
When it comes to the usability of a UX design, you must keep it intuitive and quite frankly speaking, frustration-free because if your end users do not like the design, they are going to abandon the app or the website right away and will not want to come back – even if it is for online window shopping. We know that you would not want that to happen so what you can do is to keep this in mind: achieve a higher usability design while creating your websites, apps, etc. These designs must also let the users do their thing quickly without any difficulty.
Here, we would like to mention that at times, it is the internet that does not load the pages properly but even then, your UX design needs to be so good and fast that there won’t be any complaints. We would also suggest you guys thoroughly read up on keeping the cognitive load as low as you can so that you can achieve your goals. In addition to that, make sure that the layouts you are working on are logical and also offer clear navigation from the very first page till the last one.
3. Consistency
Another important UX design principle to focus on is its consistency. All the elements that will be utilized to create that UX design must stay consistent throughout the website, app, etc. Do not experiment with multiple themes, color schemes and design patterns because they aren’t only confusing but they can also result in increased bounce rates. Furthermore, you guys must keep your UX design as simple as you can and here is why:
We know that there are people who like flowery content, overly edited images and vibrant colors to create UX design but those websites and apps are not liked by the end user so what’s the point of creating something that won’t be used by anyone, right? 😉
That’s all for today, everyone! If you liked reading this blog, then feel free to let us know how you plan to utilize the information that we have shared here and while you are at it, don’t forget to share this blog with your friends, favorite colleagues and everyone else who can benefit from it.
