User Experience (UX): Designing for the Human Journey
User Experience (UX) encompasses all aspects of the end-user’s interaction with the company, its services, and its products. The goal of UX design is to create easy, efficient, relevant, and all-around pleasant experiences for the user.
UX designers focus on the “Why, What, and How” of product use. This involves user research, persona building, and usability testing to ensure that the logic of the website matches the user’s expectations. If a user can find what they need without getting frustrated, that is the result of successful UX design.
Example: If you visit a travel site and can filter 500 hotels down to “Pet Friendly” and “Under $200” in three seconds, that is great UX. The designer anticipated your needs and built a logical path to help you reach your goal.
