What is UX?

The term User Experience was first invented by Dr Donald Norman. Who said that "I wanted to cover all aspects of the person’s experience with a system."

UX is better know as User Experience, it is how the user feels and what they experience, while using a website in this case. Providing a amazing user experience is upto the designer to add the features that help to improve the experience your target audience gets. As shopping websites have a huge influence on the consumers behaviour, it is important to provide them with a excellent experience.

When building a website you have to keep the end user in mind and build the website to meet their needs both aesthetically and informatively.
