Web Designer Vs. UX Designer

We cannot ignore the explanation of these two occupations — many people don’t know the difference between a UI/UX and web designer. That is why we need to explain the roles of each specialist.

In fact, everything is simple. As the name implies, a web designer works with web pages, not with mobile apps. A web designer focuses on the frontend part; they work on a website aesthetics (typography, photos, color, graphics, etc.). Still, they are not web developers, and they don’t use programming languages for comprehensive website development. At the same time, they have the necessary skills in CSS, HTML, JavaScript (frontend technologies).

As for UI/UX designers, we already described their roles and responsibilities above. They work with all software types (web and mobile); they create sketches, wireframes, prototypes, mind maps, conduct detailed analysis and research, collaborate with frontend developers, etc. When you hire UX developers, you hire more experienced specialists with a more extensive skill set.
