Digitization is the core of every business these days. If you cannot digitize your business, you have quite practically done it. However, while it may appear that it is largely the web developers who run the show, there also seems to be an obscure sect of people who make sure websites are user-friendly – Website testers.
People these days get paid for testing websites. They help with understanding functionality, usability and refining the design of a website.
