Every business owner knows that your website is often the first impression potential customers have of your brand. For Acme Corp, a B2B software company, it became clear that their website was falling short. With declining user engagement and poor conversion rates, it was time for a makeover. In this case study, we’ll walk you through how a thoughtful redesign transformed their website and led to an impressive 40% increase in conversion rates.

The Challenge

Acme Corp had been around for over ten years and had built a solid reputation, but their website was starting to look like an old relic. Visitors found it hard to navigate, key information was buried under layers of text, and the overall look felt outdated. The leadership team realized that to attract and retain customers, they needed a website that matched their commitment to quality.

Goals of the Redesign

The team set some clear goals for the redesign:

  1. Improve User Experience: Make it easier for visitors to find what they need.

  2. Boost Lead Generation: Optimize key pages to encourage more users to reach out.

  3. Freshen Up the Look: Give the website a modern aesthetic that reflects their brand’s identity.

  4. Enhance SEO: Make sure the new website followed best practices to improve search visibility.

The Redesign Journey

1. In-Depth Research

Before getting into design, we took a step back and did our homework. This included:

  • User Feedback: We talked to existing customers to gain insights into their frustrations and preferences.

  • Analyzing Data: We dove into the analytics to pinpoint which pages weren’t performing well and why.

  • Competitor Analysis: We looked at some of the competitors to see what they were doing right (and wrong).

2. Developing a New Strategy

With insights in hand, we created a game plan that focused on several key changes:

  • Simplified Navigation: We restructured the menu to make it easier for users to access crucial information quickly.

  • Attention-Grabbing CTAs: We designed clear and attractive Calls to Action to encourage visitors to sign up for demos and newsletters.

  • Visual Refresh: The colors, fonts, and images were modernized to reflect a professional yet approachable brand.

  • Mobile Optimization: With more people browsing on their phones, we made sure the site looked stellar on all devices.

3. Testing and Feedback

As we built the new site, we didn’t just wait until it was finished to see if it worked. We employed an agile approach: testing early and often. We created mock-ups, ran A/B tests, and got feedback from real users, tweaking things along the way.

The Results

Once the redesigned website launched, we closely monitored how users interacted with it. Here’s what we found over the next three months:

  • 40% Boost in Conversions: The number of visitors filling out forms and requesting demos shot up by 40% — a huge win!

  • 25% Drop in Bounce Rate: Fewer visitors were leaving after just one page, which indicated they were finding content that interested them.

  • 35% Increase in Time on Site: Users were spending more time exploring the site, diving deeper into the content we’d created.

  • Higher Quality Leads: The sales team noted that the leads coming through the site felt more qualified, making their job easier.

Takeaways

The redesign was a game changer for Acme Corp, proving that a website isn’t just a digital brochure; it’s a critical tool for engagement and conversion. By focusing on user needs and incorporating modern design principles, they were able to create a site that not only looked great but also drove results.
