Web Design for User Experience
Description
In today's evolving digital landscape, the modern marketer plays a crucial role in shaping and maintaining a brands' online presence through the brands' website. Websites are trusted by consumers as a single access point for brands. The modern website acts as a hub connecting various business operations and digital marketing efforts. Marketers often work cross-functionally with web designers and developers and need to ensure they are working together to prioritize the user experience.
