Website design is the art and science of creating visually appealing and functional websites that provide an exceptional user experience. It involves a blend of creative and technical skills to design layouts, graphics, and interactive elements that capture the essence of a brand while ensuring intuitive navigation and accessibility. A well-designed website not only attracts and retains visitors but also guides them seamlessly towards their goals, whether it’s making a purchase, filling out a form, or engaging with content.
