Recently, Axual faced a digital dilemma. Their existing website was not up to par in communicating their unique selling propositions effectively and was falling short in guiding their target audience through the sales funnel to actions like starting a trial or booking a demo. They needed a website revamp that not only freshened up their online presence but also optimized it for clear communication and conversions.
Our Approach
- Initial Engagement and Strategy: The journey began with a comprehensive kick-off call and asset gathering to deeply understand Axual’s challenges and goals. Our team dove into a competitor analysis, evaluating websites from similar companies to grasp industry standards and innovations, ensuring Axual could stand out in a crowded market.
- Research and Development: Armed with insights, we crafted a new sitemap and redefined the information architecture. We designed the navigation to enhance user experience, focusing on readability and strategically placing actions to improve conversion rate optimization (CRO). The navigation was simplified with descriptive labels and grouped logically, avoiding overwhelming users with excessive choices.
Execution
- Design Excellence: The design phase emphasized visual hierarchy and responsive design to ensure a compelling user experience across all devices. We focused on a clean content layout and a balanced color scheme that reflected Axual’s brand identity while enhancing the readability of their complex information.
- Conversion Tactics: Conversions were a major focus. We implemented clear calls-to-action, user-friendly forms, and A/B testing to refine and perfect the user journey. Content was broken down into manageable sections with strategic use of headings and subheadings, and a grid system maintained consistency across pages.
- Interactive Elements: Animations were not just decorative but functional. A platform showcase animation and a how-it-works animation were developed to effectively communicate Axual’s platform capabilities and to engage users more interactively, making the complex services understandable at a glance.
Technical and CMS Development
- CMS Setup: We simplified the content management system, making it straightforward for Axual to update and manage their website without technical assistance. This user-friendly CMS setup ensured that the site could evolve with minimal effort as Axual’s needs grew.
- Performance Optimization: A developer-first framework was employed to ensure high performance, focusing on speed and efficiency. Techniques such as lazy loading, caching, and minimizing file sizes were used to enhance the site’s loading times and overall responsiveness.
The Result
The new Axual website is an example of digital innovation. It clearly communicates their USPs, smoothly guides users through the sales funnel which significantly improves conversion rates. The site’s performance is optimized to the highest standards, offering a fast and seamless user experience. With its fresh look and optimized backend, Axual is now perfectly equipped to engage their sophisticated audience and meet the dynamic demands of the tech industry.
