Fonts on a Date

Type Connection, a typographic dating game website, invites typeface enthusiasts to explore how different fonts mesh and match, and support and differentiate.

For two font types to create a harmony with interest, they need to differentiate and contrast and yet feature some common principles in style: legibility, stroke weight and modulation, consistency in weight, and fluidity are all variables that contribute to a make it or break it relationship.

Website and Web Application Benchmark Testing

All websites and integrated web applications developed by the Interaria team are tested against several criteria such as clean code, web page loading times, security, and overall user experience and usability.

Interaria’s technical website testing process includes systematically troubleshooting any website problems originating either from the code or the set server. During the development process, each web application goes through a documented benchmark testing to make sure that the web applications function optimally and that they include all required and outlined feature set systems.

The benchmark testing includes scalability planning and testing to make sure that the website and integrated web applications can handle increased data input and user increase.

The benchmark testing also includes security testing that makes sure that all applicable web applications such as payment and billing systems are optimally secured according to the industry standard practices. Continue reading Website and Web Application Benchmark Testing

CMS Admin Usability & User Flow Design

A CMS Admin design process includes designing and customizing the CMS Admin area with the same design dedication that is applied to the website’s front-end design process.

Website’s identity, layout style and user interfaces are typically illustrated in a detailed manner for a client to be able to fully assess the design and development plan for the website. This is a wonderful but unfortunately not always enough. The future website owner should also be introduced to the CMS Admin area usability and user-flow designs as the site owner and/or other members in the company will be using the Content Management System on a daily or weekly basis.

Especially when the front-end web design includes image rich features, different types of text formatting, complex tables and other data formatting, it is important to provide a view to the back-end Admin area design for the client to be able to fully assess the requirements for maintaining such complex features.

A CMS Admin design process includes designing and customizing the CMS Admin area with the same design dedication that is applied to the website’s front-end design process. This includes illustrating the look and feel of the back-end CMS interfaces, mapping a user-flow for each interface (such as how many clicks are required, what is the required learning curve), and providing the client an opportunity for proper testing rounds and an opportunity to give feedback.

Interaria’s custom approach to Content Management System development allows us to design and customize CMS Admin areas for reaching an optimal user experience. We take CMS usability and user-flow seriously. We recognize that websites should be designed for ALL users, including the site owner and staff that frequently use CMS systems.
