**2013 will be coming to a close sooner than most of us are ready for**, but that doesn't mean the end of the year is upon us quite yet. When 2013 began (as every year does), it started with the yearly predictions of this, that, and the other for every topic of interest. For web design, 2013 [marked the revival of Paralax and the rise in popularity for responsive design](http://experience.stratusinteractive.com/blog/bid/336113/What-s-Going-On-in-Web-Design-Top-Trends-of-2013). But what else has 2013 provided the web design industry?

Here's a handy infographic that illustrates the top dogs of 2013 web design.

Creating content without knowing the general appearance of the site is just as counterintuitive as designing a website without knowing the sort of content that will be implemented.
