Whether you are starting your website from scratch or you are working on existing, you should have a rough idea of these principles.
RESPONSIVE DESIGN:
Images and videos should scale and size depending on the screen resolution on which they are being viewed. Multiple pixel densities in devices are a big challenge for web designers. By creating responsive images and videos, the viewing of your site content becomes smoother.
FLOWING GRIDS:
When screen sizes become smaller, content starts to be shown in vertical position and anything below is pushed down, it is called ‘the flow’. It’s a completely different phenomenon from pixels. A website built on a flow grid will be based on percentages instead of on pixels and points.
BREAKPOINTS:
Breakpoints allow the changes in the layout at various points. Most CSS properties can be changed from one breakpoint to another. Media queries are a CSS technology that is a major component of responsive web design. They define the breakpoints that allow CSS to work under specific conditions.
REMOVING THE NON- ESSENTIAL CONTENT:
When the content is large, it would be difficult to control and make important elements on the screen. Your website should not look disorganized or messy. It is the point where static units like pixels can help. They are helpful for content that you don't want to scale, like buttons and logos. Non- essential content do not show to improve the user experience. Be careful, your core content should still be easily accessible on smaller screens without any clutter.
MOBILE A PRIORITY OR DESKTOP:
Technically there is not any problem if a project starts from a smaller screen (mobile) to a bigger (desktop). It’s your choice to start from both ends at the same time. Mobile first is designing the mobile-friendly pages first before working on desktop designs. As the rapidly growing use of mobile is there, this technique is used

Another year, another set of challenges: is it make or break for the PR industry in 2018?

2017 has been a big year for the PR industry. Not only did we witness myriad crises, campaigns and the odd fall from grace, but a number of new trends also emerged. Live-stream video, for example, grew in popularity as did the use of influencers to drive engagement. 2018 looks — at least on paper — like an unprecedentedly good setup for the PR and marketing industry. But behind the scenes, the industry appears shockingly vulnerable. Micro moments Information can be accessed faster and faster with the use of smartphone applications, notifications, and social media. According to Huffington Post, 55 per cent of the time people use their smartphones, they do so in short bursts of 30 seconds or less.
