Tips On How To Improve UX/UI Design of a Web Application

Studies prove that a well-designed UI is able to raise your conversion rate by up to 200%. An improved UX design can boost conversion rates up to 400%. That's why it's essential to make your web app not just attractive, but also convenient and user-friendly.

Here are a few methods on how to improve UX/UI Design.

1. As a first step, conduct thorough USER RESEARCH, ask the right questions. Not how to improve user experience on a website or app in general; start with the definition of the final user.

2. Keep it SIMPLE, minimalism has been among the key trends in web design for the last few years and will certainly not lose in positions.

3. Add more WHITESPACE.

4. Work with FEEDBACK. 70% of companies that deliver best in class customer experience use customer feedback.

5. Focus on CONTENT. Speak visitors' language, make every page winning.

6. Make the WEB App Mobile-friendly. If your web app isn't mobile-optimized, users are five times more likely to abandon it. So, you're shutting out your potential customers by not optimizing your app for the best mobile experience.

7. Conduct AUDIT. Comparing with a previous version, evaluating what's been done, drawing the first conclusions - these steps are essential, especially for long-time projects.

5 New Year’s Resolutions for the Workplace

1. Tidy Up

Whether you work from an office desk or from a work from home office space, it is important to start 2023 by tidying up. Put away or dispose of last year’s notes, documents, and paperwork. Anything you think you might need, save a digital copy of it on your drive/server. You’ll be surprised at how good you feel afterward. Getting rid of office clutter is a rewarding, fresh start to the new year.

2. Take a short break

When there are important deadlines due or last-minute changes to a project needed by end of the day, preparing and eating a healthy lunch usually gets put on the back burner.

3. Go that extra mile

The position you hold could potentially grow into something bigger and better. One of the most important New Year’s resolutions ideas to consider is to push yourself at work. Do the extra projects you wouldn’t normally do. Small tasks will add up fast and make you look like a new and improved employee and possible promotions could be on the horizon.

4. Plan Employee Activities For Your Team

Something you can’t forget on your goal sheet, are your ideas for team activities for the year.

5. Stay positive

Work on becoming a more uplifting and optimistic worker as your new year’s resolution. It will rub off on others in the office and help boost everyone’s mood.

Have an awesome New Year!

Doing IT Right - Charities you can donate in the upcoming Holiday season as a Tech Company.

We have started a Campaign under the slogan in order to motivate IT Companies to donate to a charity of their choice.

The impact of donations and volunteering for nonprofits can be drastically increased with the help of corporate programs. It's amazing to be able to reach out to our community, and here are some charities of our choice through which your business can give back to community:

https://ablegamers.org/ - Able Gamers was set up in 2004 to help people with disabilities to play video games and to make games more accessible overall. Given that video gaming can often help connect people over long distances, its use to combat isolation has never been more relevant.

https://code.org/ - A non-profit organization which aims to expand access to computer science in schools. Its mission is to give every child the opportunity to study the subject and, in fact, it provides much of the K12- curriculum in a number of US schools.

https://girlswhocode.com/ - A non-profit organization with the aim of encouraging girls to study STEM, specifically computer science, subjects. It runs a series of classes for young women as after school clubs, short courses and summer schools.

http://www.tech4all.org.uk/ - A charity based in London although run a variety of projects with global impact. They partner with a mixture of private and public sector organizations to help those who are disadvantaged or in poverty. Their underlying philosophy is to help people through technology as we believe this provides the most effective way of relieving poverty.

Also, never forget your local charities and volunteers, like the charities working on raising awareness for pollution, abandoned and stray animals, etc.

We can support charities not only by donating funds, but also time and sharing experiences and knowledge.

In an ever growing world of knowledge, learning and technology, it's important to leave an impact.

With the rising number of millennials embracing the “gig economy”, and more businesses open to outsourcing expertise, freelancers may just be the workforce of the future. It’s possible to gain a lucrative career out of “being your own boss” – but of course, this comes with having a crucial set of both soft and technical skills under your belt.

5 must-have skills for freelancers.

1. Time management.

It’s important to treat your freelancing career like you would a typical office job. Keep a daily or weekly to-do list of all your project goals and urgent deadlines.

2. Social media marketing.

Take advantage of the online market by having a good grasp of productive social media platforms, such as LinkedIn. These sites are high-traffic channels for promoting your services, creating online campaigns, and making online connections with others in your field.

3. Communication.

Whether you’re meeting clients in person or sending out business e-mails, communication is a mandatory soft skill for any freelancer.

4. Finance.

Working in freelance comes with tons of freedom – but simultaneously at the loss of company perks such as paid leave, super contributions and having someone managing your monthly pay.

You are now fully responsible for your financial stability, which means developing a firm grasp of financial management and basic accounting skills.

5. Persistence and motivation.

Last, but most certainly not least: it’s imperative to stay persistent on this career path. While it comes with the flexibility every worker desires, freelancing can ultimately be a risky, unstable venture. But for those who push through – it’s absolutely worth it.

Working as a freelancer has its fair share of perks. Apart from choosing when to get up in the mornings, you have flexibility in deciding where to work, what to work on, and control of your financial future.

Whether working collectively in a physical space or remotely through virtual environments, a positive working environment is critical for workplace culture and the employee experience. It influences everything from stress levels and mental wellbeing to productivity and performance.

We at Akrinum believe that creating a positive work environment goes far beyond the color of the office walls. In fact, it goes beyond the workplace entirely.
As a fully remote Company, for us the working environment is about far more than just the physical.

A positive work environment is a space that promotes employee wellbeing, productivity and growth. A few factors go toward this, including having good working practices, relatable values, a supportive atmosphere, and a culture of trust.
In short, a positive working environment is a space that encourages people to perform at their best.

How do we achieve a positive working environment?

By creating a great onboarding experience, by putting values into practice to give everyone a real sense that we’re all working toward a common goal, through team-building exercises, by focusing on wellbeing, as well as encouraging inclusivity and communication within the Company. Open and honest communication is they key towards building a positive work environment.

What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of working environment?
