Digital well being of your target users matters a lot. It’s important to note this. It’s users first.

Fast, speed

Let your target users find that web resource they look for in the shortest time as possible. It’s not about having a user spend a lot of time on your site. That’s not the Web we want.

Integrated

User experiences on the web should feel like an integrated part of the user’s device; whether the user chooses to reach through a browser window or not, the experience should feel true to how the user interacts with the device.

Reliable

The web must be reliable. Using some of the Pre-Cache and Cache Strategies available, avail resources that the user requests for even in the poorest internet connection.

Engaging, users in sync

Use features like Push Notification and Web Badge API ( API in beta testing in latest Chrome version ) to keep the user in sync with the latest and fresh content in your web app.

Avoid using push notifications to push away your users. Use push notifications in the right manner. Push value to your users. Push what’s necessary and promptly.
