Your website type decides which kind of web design is more appropriate for the site. Commonly two types of website designing concept are in practice. They are UX and UI.

When it comes to online shopping, the smartphone has now surpassed desktops. In October 2016, nearly 51.3% of the global population browses online using a tablet or a smartphone, compared to the 48.7% that use a desktop. Starting in 2015, Google began rewarding mobile-friendly websites with higher rankings in the search results; a good reason for businesses to have a strategy in place for mobile.

In the traditional customer service setup, there were customer service personnel taking calls and responding to customer queries on emails. Unfortunately, they would suffer from burnout. They were forced to repeat the same instructions, cool down angry customers, and had to work for long hours. Fortunately, chatbot application development has revolutionized things. These software-based tools are now taking center stage in most company interactions with their customers. Here are ways chatbots are redefining customer experiences.

One discipline that is booming in 2018, however, is user experience (UX). And it seems to me this is precisely because UX is a broad church. UX is about meeting consumer expectations in a variety of channels, even if those are predominately digital.
UX fits within customer experience and this is at the heart of new agency propositions, where tech meets strategy and experience design.
To some extent these propositions have been forged in the heat of competition from consultancies. Earlier this year, Pierre Nanterme, chief executive of Accenture Interactive, pointed out that the company is staying out of the declining business of media buying and focusing on these more profitable areas.

Marketers today are cashing in more on the emotional quotient to connect with customers by either using celebrities or by campaigns involving social issues, talking about myths, stereotypes, etc.
Stepping into the shoes of customers and telling their stories through advertisements has become a common practice. With multiple options available to customers, it has now become difficult for brands to directly target a community and to reach to them, and hence content has started shaping up via storytelling and other formats.

Of my heroes for their ability to tell an amazing story, Walter Isaacson, author of biographies on Albert Einstein, Benjamin Franklin, Steve Jobs, and others easily makes the list. I just finished a listen of his book, The Innovators, and in comparison with his other works, it does not disappoint.
In some ways this book was a contrast from his other biographical works because it highlights the fact that the digital revolution wasn’t brought on by one single person or innovation. It instead was a continuous process of building and improving on the ideas and innovations of others and also required collaborations between individuals with a variety of strengths and abilities.
