[ES]La usabilidad es el grado en que un producto puede ser utilizado por los usuarios para lograr sus prop?sitos con efectividad, eficiencia y satisfacci?n en un determinado contexto de uso (ISO 9241-11). Se trata de conseguir productos que sean m?s f?ciles de usar y que satisfagan mejor las necesidades reales de los clientes. Un dise?o no es en s? mismo usable, lo es para usuarios espec?ficos en contextos de uso espec?ficos. Son varias las razones que nos llevan a realizar esfuerzos encaminados a cuidar los aspectos de usabilidad. No cabe duda de que un sitio Web con una buena usabilidad mejora su posici?n frente a sus competidores. En cualquier tipo de producto es deseable la facilidad de uso pero esto es especialmente importante en la Web, en la que un usuario que no se sienta c?modo o que encuentre dificultades para desenvolverse tiene una gran facilidad para buscar otro sitio que responda mejor a sus expectativas (recu?rdese el t?pico: ?en la Web la competencia est? a un clic de distancia?). En este cap?tulo se presentan bases sobre las que se asienta esta tecnolog?a.
[EN]Usability is the degree to which a product can be used by users to achieve their purposes with effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction in a given context of use (ISO 9241-11). The aim is to achieve products that are easier to use and that better meet the real needs of customers. A design is not in itself usable, it is usable for specific users in specific contexts of use. There are several reasons that lead us to make efforts to take care of usability aspects. There is no doubt that a website with good usability improves its position in front of its competitors. Ease of use is desirable in any type of product, but this is especially important in the Web, where a user who does not feel comfortable or who finds it difficult to navigate has a great facility to find another site that better meets their expectations (remem-ber the topic: "on the Web the competition is a click away"). In this chapter we present the bases on which this technology is based.
