Good UX/UI Design is Good Business

Most Jacksonville businesses understand the importance of creating a great brick-and-mortar experience for their customers. But that same dedication to the in-person experience is often not applied to the customer experience on their websites and mobile apps. Read more about UX/UI Design.

Customers are spending more time shopping online than in-store, making it imperative that your website and or app offers an optimal user experience. This can only be accomplished through the utilization of good UX (user experience) design and good UI (user interface) design. When it only takes the press of a finger to lose a potential customer, your brand can’t afford to be hampered by bad UX/UI design.

UX/UI Design

“If you think good design is expensive, you should look at the cost of bad design,” says Dr. Ralph Speth, CEO of Jaguar Land Rover.

So what exactly is UX and UI? Think of building a website or app like building a house. The UX design are the blueprints. It’s used to build the framework for the functionality and usability of your website or app. If you want to build a great house, you need great blueprints. But if the blueprints have the master bath on a different floor than the master bedroom, the house won’t function properly, creating a bad user experience for anyone living in it. It’s the same with websites and apps. Without good UX design to make every digital interaction with your brand easy and intuitive, the user experience will be bad for the potential customer, and ultimately, your bottom line.

When it only takes the press of a finger to lose a potential customer, your brand can’t afford to be hampered by bad UX/UI design.

But good UX design is only half the battle. Now that the house is built, you need to add some decor and curb appeal, and turn it into a beautiful home. This is where UI design comes in. Good UI design improves the overall look and feel and plays a crucial role in the user experience. Working together with the UX design, UI design increases functionality and attractiveness, and helps bring your brand’s visual identity to life throughout, across every platform.

A great product experience starts with UX followed by UI. Both are essential for the product’s success.”
