No doubt, every blog/website owner desires to build blog/website with best designs that to engage visitors and raise the traffic. Instead of using modern and improvised UI techniques, sometime your site compels to offer bad
user experience and the reasons are excessive use of UI techniques and clumsy design. It is really frustrating for owner as well as for users. Here is the myth of UI techniques.
Reasons Why Users Hate Below-Mentioned UI Techniques But, if you are unable to uncover the myth of UI and failed to implement UI in a right way then your users definitely suffer from worst user experience. In this blog we are going to discuss how wrong implementation of UI techniques causes pathetic user experience. I found my inner expertise of getting into the field. For me, innovation and quality is what sets me apart, and no boasting, but I hold them both as my strong pillars that took me to achieve success as a web developer in Kolkata. So, Starting with…..
Pop-Ups:
The most nauseating UI is the pop-ups on web that irritates users very much. It happens most of the time when you visit on a web page, reading something important and in middle of reading a sudden and huge layout comes and asks for your name and email address. It is really an irritating experience that users undergo. In maximum cases, users tend to close the pop-up or leave the
page. No doubt, pop-ups interrupt users and create obstacle in frequent reading or stop doing the thing that the users want to. This UI results increasing bounce rate and poor user experience. Even the traffic goes down.
If it is necessary to use pop-ups in your webpage then try to activate pop in the right time. For instance, function it to trigger when the user reaches the end of your website. Try to provide healthy note in your pop-ups and not just go for copied content. Create a pop-up that indulges your visitors to smile not to irritate.
Infinite Scrolling:
It is one of the worst UI experiences that users prefer to avoid. Infinite scrolling helps readers to go through giant information without any conclusion line in sight. Back in the years, the technique was considered good to provide best UI experience to mobile users. Users can read content without any click and they can read content frequently. But it is not a one size all fits solution that can be used for any app or webpage.
One drawback of this UI creates major disadvantage to implement on your site or blog. User cannot mark the progress while reading content due to the UI. If they leave the page for certain reason then they need to read the whole content again to get back to the place he or she has left. Though, this UI works well on Twitter or Instagram and provides happy scrolling experience to users.
Push Notifications:
Users like to get notification if it is useful. But excessive put notification compels users to uninstall the app they have downloaded. The case happens more than seventy percent. Push notification can act as the powerful tool if you use it with right techniques.
Do not let the push notification annoys your users, design notification with crispy and customized content and deliver it timely.
Scroll Hijack:
Scroll Hijack is an UI that fails to provide great user experience to the users. This UI creates problem in scrolling page and tries to scrolling that users do not like every time. It is best idea to let users control their scrolling activity on their own. Albeit scroll hijacking works great for a few sites, Tumbler is an example. Tumbler uses this UI to provide information in pieces.
Final Note
You can stop users to hate the UI if your designers and developers embrace the UI techniques in
proper ways. Be intelligent and calculative in incorporating UI techniques and see the great
result.
