Success is all about Conversion. 

A website is a conversion machine before it is anything else. These projects share a common starting point, an audit of what isn't working, and a common goal: reducing the distance between a visitor's intent and the action the business needs them to take.

eCommerce UX Audit & Redesign: Candy Nation

A successful eCommerce site performs like a software application — business goals and user goals must align, and a good visit ends in a purchase. The refresh touched every layer of the site, from typographic fundamentals to usability and accessibility standards. Despite the scope of changes, the result remains recognizably on-brand.

The goal was to improve visual quality and usability while keeping changes to the underlying content structure to a minimum. The data model and content matrix were treated as fixed constraints — which is why, for example, the category link list retains its current form rather than being reimagined as a visual navigation element.

Due to platform constraints, the revised design was not implemented. The following work was developed independently to demonstrate the full scope of the design direction.

Current: Key Issues

  • No coherent color strategy

  • Visual hierarchy undefined

  • Header oversized, product names lack contrast, body type too small

  • Off-brand yellow container disrupts visual language

  • Footer competes with active page areas instead of receding

  • Price tag and primary call to action both easy to miss

Design Proposal: What changed?

  • Simplified color scheme with clear visual hierarchy and defined reading order

  • Simplified color scheme with clear visual hierarchy and defined reading order

  • Decluttered header, legible logo, links that look like links

  • Orange primary call to action — visible and unambiguous

  • Price tag enlarged and given an inviting color treatment

  • Footer scaled back, subscription box redesigned to welcome rather than interrupt

Design Proposal

Redesign for Conversion: Menekshe Law

You have to meet people where they are — that's as true for converting website visitors into clients as it is for public transportation. A law firm website is not a brochure. It is a software application with one primary job: turning a person with a legal problem into a booked consultation.

Old Site: Key Issues

  • Stale, generic content addressing no visitor in particular

  • Most questions a prospective client would have went unanswered

  • No call to action, information without direction

  • Team photography that signals presence but not competence

New Site: What changed?

  • Dedicated page for every practice area — built for search visibility

  • Page structure answers visitor questions in logical sequence: specialty → competence → trust → next step → location

  • Logo revised for legibility — a forgotten name is a lost client

  • Visual design strengthened for branding consistency and accessibility
