Trends come and go, although some stay for several years in a row and it changes so quickly that it is difficult to catch everything in your basket. So we will try to talk about them one after the other and with examples you will be able to get a complete picture of what it is like. The age of the website when it needs updating is between three and five years, then something needs to be changed, be it fonts, icons, colors or the complete layout. It is important to go with technology and of course it costs money if you have to do it through agencies.

1. ‘AI’ Concept Discoveries

New technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) are making inroads across all channels and we have to embrace it because the future belongs to technology and robotics. This trend is the first on our list and it is the hottest one as more and more web is being created with the help of AI and this is a wonderful thing in this period. How it will be later we will find out, but now we are giving ourselves with all our capacities to what everyone seemed to be out of reach, and now everything is served on a plate.

3. Design for Accessibility

As stated on AbilityNet, 90% of all websites fail to meet a single item from the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines set by the World Wide Web consortium (W3C). However, there is also good news, because many web designers talk about adapting design for the disabled, so this problem should disappear with time or at least become more or less acceptable to the public that needs help.

4. Retro Modernism

Proud nostalgic web designs that look retro, but are built with modern technology and have everything a modern blogger or business needs. When creating such designs, you need to go back to the times when computerization just started, to find out what colors are suitable, usually icons and images are oval-shaped. So if you are hooked on this style, we are starting to create it.
