Wireframing & UX Foundation
Before diving into design, we established a solid UX foundation through data-driven wireframing. Our team analyzed user behavior, navigation flow, and heatmap insights to identify friction points in the customer journey. Low-fidelity wireframes were created to visualize structure, prioritize usability, and simplify product discovery.
The new UX flow emphasized intuitive navigation, seamless checkout, and mobile-first accessibility. Every element—from product filtering to CTAs—was strategically placed to enhance engagement and guide users toward conversion. This wireframing phase ensured the redesign was not just visually appealing but functionally optimized for business growth.

The improved site architecture not only enhanced SEO but also simplified backend management, reducing maintenance time by over 40%.

Most importantly, integrating SEO and design strategies from the start created a unified growth framework that continues to deliver measurable results.
