Web Development trends to watch in 2016

I have a rather bad habit. Every year, the entire January, my time and energy goes away watching for trends for the year ahead in every predictable spheres that exist below the sun. Today while I was busy in that so-called important job, I came across a fine article that predicted number of trends to come up in web development. Instantly, I thought of sharing the information with you. Since I know you are very busy, I have chunked out and listed only the three major and the exciting ones.

1. Website security gaining importance- Safety and security is our major concern, be it our physical life or the virtual one. Hackers are becoming more and more agressive and always are in lookout for loopholes to intrude into our personal information. Therefore, this year will witness an increasing demand of website security. The features that one can implement for better security are:

HTTPS: This is a secure communication protocol thats offers sturdier security features like better encrypted communication.

HTTP/2: It is faster and a more secure replacement for HTTP, which has been the standard for decades now.

2. More adaptation of responsive web desgins: As more and more people are going the mobile ways, that is there is an increased usage of smartphones and tablets among the population, business owners are turning to the responsive websites to maximize their reach. A responsive website is the one that can be access through multiple devices like desktops, laptops, tablets and smartphones, without compromising with the content.

3. Regular website maintenance to keep up with the speed and health of the website: Yes, finally the people are becoming more and more health-conscious, at least in regard to their websites. Regular maintenance of a website is extremely important as it helps in SEO ranking, keeps it free from malwares and also a clean website churns out more revenue as the customers remain happy. 2016 will see an ever-incraesing demand in the website maintenance segment.
