My Daily Workflow as a Web Designer
People often think that web designers just wake up, open their laptops, and boom, a killer website appears. (Spoiler alert: it’s not that simple! 😅)
So here’s what my day as a freelancer really looks like:
First up, I check my emails and see what clients have been up to. This is where I figure out what’s most important to tackle,no design magic happening yet, just some good old planning.
Then it’s time to really dive in. This is when I design layouts, tweak the user experience, and sometimes just stare at my screen for ages until I finally have that “aha!” moment.
Next, I jump on client calls and feedback sessions. Some chats are super quick, while others turn into “let’s totally redo everything” talks. (Patience is key!)
After that, it’s all about revisions, testing mobile versions, and making sure everything not only looks awesome but also runs smoothly. Because let’s be real, a slow, pretty website is just frustrating.
Finally, I wrap things up, send out progress updates, and maybe scroll through other designers' work for some inspiration (or a little reminder that I'm not in this alone).
Being a web designer isn’t just about sitting in front of a screen all day making stuff “look pretty.” It’s all about problem-solving, juggling creativity with logic, and keeping projects rolling without losing your mind.
Curious enough? Maybe I’ll share a peek behind the scenes of my workspace next time!
