What Is UX Design?
UX Design, or user experience design, relates to how a user feels when interacting with any aspect of a website or application. Potential interruptions or off-brand elements can lead to higher bounce rates, whereas successful UX can lead to conversions.
The smoother and more pleasant the user's journey is while interacting with your product, service, or company, the more loyalty to your brand is established. That keeps users coming back. Successful UX design is a crucial first step in the design phase, creating a strong backbone for the end product.
Fahrenheit’s UX Process
UX design, when done from the beginning, includes researching competitors and features to be offered and then creating low-fidelity prototypes of a website’s structure, without fonts, graphics, or colors to distract from the intended flow. By visualizing the unadorned layout, you can see how users can interact and navigate within your website to encourage the desired conversion paths. This can also be done with a UX audit after your site or application is already launched. Fahrenheit’s UX designers seek failure–that is, counterintuitively, the point – to find unlikely scenarios or ways that users might get stuck in a loop.
Our UX design is intended to ensure visitors can find relevant information through the least possible amount of clicks while simultaneously enjoying the process. From continuous testing to user journey mapping to extensive QAs, our designers will ensure your customer experience is clear and enjoyable. And most importantly, we prioritize experiences with clear calls to action that move people through the marketing funnel, from discovery to conversion.
Benefits Of Prioritizing UX In Web/App Development
- Put Your Customers First - When you prioritize UX design, you are in turn prioritizing your customer. Having an enjoyable user experience is of paramount importance in gaining new customers and retaining existing ones. The search engines are keenly aware of which sites answer viewers’ needs. Fahrenheit labors to understand the psychological forces and the experiences your customers expect and engineers to work with those factors.
- Saves Time in Development Phase - UX design involves extensive planning and testing. Fahrenheit’s designers will iteratively tweak pages and applications numerous times to ensure it’s exactly right before approval for development. If you were to bypass this process, you may have to redo and recode major components of your website. As a full-service agency, our designers also ‘value engineer’ alongside our developers to ensure that the experience you want for your viewers is feasible and able to be developed.
