I am so sick of job titles like "UX designer," "UI designer," and "visual designer." All visual design on the web is related to UI/UX. You can't do UI design without affecting UX and vice-versa.
Let's just go back "web designer." Please.

- erikpukinskis 14y agoYou can put Graphic, UI, and UX all under the umbrella of "Design" if you like. They are specialties in the way that front-end, back-end, or database engineering are all specialties. You can also have one person doing all of them, the same way you can have a single engineer at your company, but very very very few people can do all three well, and on many projects there is too much work for any one person to do. Also, much of UX design doesn't necessariy fall under the category of web design. A UX designer is looking at the entire product experience, which would potentially include things advertising, customer service, advertising, etc. You can use the shorthand "designer"... that's fine. But you can't just wish away entire professions. There are pairs of Graphic and Experience Designers who have almost nothing in common in terms of responsibilities and skills.
