How to measure usability? (Part I)

There are various ways to measure usability. The most common methods include carrying out user surveys and/or polls, conducting user tests and measuring user statistics. Each method has its own important role and appropriate time in the process of measuring usability and product development as a whole.

The cornerstones of a good UX project are a methodical approach and teamwork

One of the biggest dangers of user experience design projects is performing various tasks in isolation. In this way, the universal user experience can become the vision of a single UX designer and may not meet the expectations and needs of users.

 

A methodical approach and active team cooperation help to counter this. A properly executed UX process is methodical. This means that it uses a wide range of techniques, which in turn are structured and implemented according to a specific system and sequence.

 

UX - smiling users

Making websites could be a hobby like any other hobby, and usually so much more. The process has everything that a hobby should have – it relieves stress, gives pleasure from the results, is challenging, interesting, and most importantly, creative and active.

 

Persuasion through design

Through using UX (User Experience) we can make websites that are easy to use, straightforward, and logical. Well implemented UX also helps users to take the necessary steps towards completing their goals. But putting effort only into developing perfect UX solutions is not enough.

How everybody benefits from accessibility

When we say something is accessible, it means it’s usable for as many people as possible, regardless of their age, knowledge, abilities or disabilities. Overall, an accessible website is just more flexible and suits with a wider selection of needs and preferences. By investing in accessibility, we also invest in usability.
