We look at how things have progressed over the last decade
The designers at Reactive Graphics in our London web design studio are always trying to improve their skillset and keep up to date with the latest design trends, styles and technologies. This can be a challenge as web design in London is constantly changing; a lot of dedication is required to keep ahead of new and emerging practices.
Over the last 10 years web design in London has seen dramatic changes due to advances in technology. The hardware and software used to design and produce websites is constantly developing and improving. The evolution of the Internet itself has provided scope for more and more adventurous design with each new upgrade supporting more advanced coding languages and techniques.
Web design in London has changed for the better and this is largely thanks to the new technology. It has never been a better time to take advantage of this and launch your business online. Compared to 10 years ago, the cost of web design in London has halved.
Design
The amount of different devices now accessing the Internet has caused web design in London to change. Access to the Internet with mobile and tablet devices looks set to overtake that of desktop computers. Web design must now address how a website will look and perform on multiple devices and screen sizes. Reactive Graphics offer numerous design solutions to create websites that work well on multiple devices. New technology allows us to create responsive frameworks that reposition and reorganize content for optimum display and user experience.
Technology
A business can establish itself online for relatively little cost thanks to reduced hardware and software costs. The price of web design in London is now significantly cheaper as a result of cheaper technology. Thanks to open source packages like Magento and WordPress, web development is also a fraction of the cost it was 10 years ago. It is no longer necessary to build applications from scratch as most components required for the development of a website are freely available. Open source packages provide the key building blocks of a website and can be modified to suit the majority of requirements. Although some projects require complex programming, much of our time is now spent on design and integration.
Internet
Thanks to faster Internet speeds the type of content that can be displayed on websites has changed. In the past web designers would steer away from images as they would take a long time to load and would affect the time it took for users to access web content. Nowadays with faster Internet speeds London web design features much more exciting layouts that can include video and large images.
