What do web designers do?
When you see a beautiful sculpted statue, normally
what one see is the statue itself and not the meticulous, tedious process that
must have involved resulting in giving you this beautiful outcome. The same
thinking is assumed of web designers, what the customer sees are not the
designer’s cognitive ideas but the finished outcome, the website before his/her
eyes.
A web designer’s role is assumed to simply
create websites and web pages that show off the client’s ordeal leading to the
possibility of a larger number of potential customers but the real insight of
a web designer’s role is more than just creating a website for the
internet.
The statue that we talked of about is the outcome of
the sculpture’s clear-cut use of his tools such as his chisel, mallet, rasps,
rifflers etc that amounted to the given result. In the same manner, web
designers too must possess tools to design the asked-website and his tools
here are Html, CSS and JavaScript which are also the backbone of every web
designer.
Web designers apart from building/rebuilding
websites should be creative and technically inclined which mean they are always
to be aware of the newest trends that are on the rise. Since technologies are
continuously growing, meeting the exact needs of the clients can be a
cumbersome work. At the same time, what would be the point of creating a
website just for the sake of it, to create a good website means to have an
appealing, aesthetic aspect which would only be arrived at with the right
utilization of colours, fonts, layouts and images. These combined factors as a
whole are going to determine the personality of the website which eventually
will be drawn back to you and the message/ideas that you have conveyed to your
audience.

Apart from organising information, the creating
content and designing the layout of the content on a web medium, the most
important factor remaining is the usability. Given the huge growth of the
website development with every inch of time, competitors are right-on the game,
an estimate of study suggests that users are bound to leave the website if it
takes more than 4 to 6 seconds to load, hence it all comes down to your website
which is going to determine if your potential customer stays or hop off to your
competitor’s website. The other reason as to how you might face the risk of
losing customers is, when you do not have the coherence and the spontaneity .One
might have invested a lot of skill and time to create that complex pages of
websites but customer’s view of the website will be completely
different from the designer’s view. After all you are the designer; hence one
might face the danger of losing customers in situations when the client has to
fight through your website as to where to go and how. The simplest and the
oldest trick is simplicity. A precise, exacting content with good navigation is
going to make your customers hooked on to your website which will increase the
web traffic resulting in increased conversions.
There is this notion of all web
designers being able to implement the coding language in their work but it
is not so, some designers never have to code, instead they are responsible for
creating the assets for your website in a completely design program. They will
be working on the layouts and design things like the icons and graphics which
later on gets converted into the HTML forming the finished website.
Also implementing the correct strategy to a
specific, targeted audience is crucial such as using bright colours for
children, sombre colours for metal-heads, green for nature so and so. The main
idea behind is to be able to catch the customer’s eyes.
Yes, in simplicity a web designer is here
to build websites but as one might have had a little clue that it is not just
about building websites. Web designers prospectively put forth your
ideas and imagination in an aesthetic visual imagery for all to see.
