Five Things Web Designer Should Keep Doing

Rough scratching or painting by hand

Spend some time to give practice to your hand for rough scratch or paint. You can create funny cartoon character or info graph or anything you like to scratch. Sometime scratching without any financial purpose takes you to deeper to your thoughts of imagination and can get some good idea. All you need to do is to convert that idea in your design with use of software and technology. Designing wireframe can be more specific scratch if it relates with your web design carrier and then trying out on any live site to see the real impact of your visitors. Thinking of usefulness of that wireframe in small screen of mobile instead of wider screen of computer, would take you to new stage of imagining with user prospect.

Narrow down the possibilities

If you are Chicago web design expert who has designed many websites in different industry and concept, getting new one would raise so many possibilities in your mind which would lead to great confusion. It is not single entity for which you have so many thoughts but for all elements like style of buttons, design of text links, style of menu, special text effects,  front header intro design and footer specification. All these things have role in creating confusion and you must fix common attributes of each before starting the actual design. Fixing things would make your work easier.

Go out from home and observe

Sitting on computer for continuous hours of work make you addicted of thinking about common scenario of implementing specific task. So sometime you have to give break and go out and observe different things by nature. GO watch out animated or funny cartoon movies, watch comic magazine or anything you like. Observing different things and people behavior, watching great architecture structure all these can give you new ideas if you are good at observing things.

Never stop learning

There would be no end of learning in this industry. There would be new tools, new update about software, new art, new ways and new trends would be there. Following up with all these stuff would be tough task and require lots of time.  Never feel over confident that you have absorbed all the stuff and knowledge of all the things present in web design. Spend 30 minutes on learning about new things and watching on great design work by other professional.

Trying out New stuff

Web designer often found himself fighting against the time to design something unique which usually require more time than given to the client, and if they fail at certain initial stage, they used to give up and adopt the option which they have experience of. So any web design requirement comes, if you start of trying something new which you haven’t designed previously, never give up in middle of way and try harder to complete.

Characteristics of New York Web Development Expert

I have used “New York” in title of my post because these are the skills I have observed from one of my friend working at New York web design firm. There are certain things an excellent developer should have or certain features which can be seen easily in his development. Below is the quick view on all these points.

Business Research

A programmer without doing research about the business prospective or requirement is taking certain decision blindly even if he is expertise at. Your client isn’t able to give you technical specification and he would just provide rough requirement and it is up to developer to know the basic purpose and requirement of specific business with regards to its niche. When you are developing B2B websites, you should research other popular B2B sites as well to know about all the possible things which can be developed or required client may not give you all detail and may ask to develop the same in future.

Optimized Database design

When there is a need of retrieving data from hundreds of tables in database which are connected with each other by one or two common field, optimized database generation can reduce lots of work. Developing complex ERP application is an ideal example. Defining the need designing individual database and establishing the relationship with different tables in same database and in different need to be done smartly. You may have to write hundreds line of coding for one Insert or update query due to weak database design and it would be very time consuming.

 Error Evaluation skills

There is lots of debugging and testing require for creating error free coding. There Is a method which can debug each line of your coding hence he must have ability to find the error at place quickly. A good programmer must have ability to identify the problems and able to resolve it even if it has been developed by someone else.

Documentation skills

Coding of professional programmer is well managed and contains detail specification of coding of different section on website with use of comments or external specification. This type of coding with specification can be easily understood by other programmer. Kind of projects which require couple of months to complete, it may possible that more than one developer works together and it must documented well for all participant.

Decision taking skills

A developer with great skills without productivity and decision taking skills is not worth compare to the one with has. Efficient utilization of skills and knowledge at right time is necessary. He should know how to get maximum productivity from him.

At Spinx, New York web development we ask our programmer to follow certain standard and to improve above skills and motivate them to improve performance with productivity.
