As an entrepreneur or developer, creating a website that’s user friendly is key. Most visitors to your website or app will either go on to convert, buy, sign up, download or drop out before doing so owing to how tailored the interface is.
Realizing this, Google’s UX team is organizing the 2015 Sub-Saharan Africa UX masterclass in Nairobi, Lagos and Capetown. This will be conducted in two sessions and is designed to help you understand your target market and customize your website or application suitably.
