Designing · User Journey & Conversion-Focused Design
Find where visitors hesitate, then design the path past it.
We map how people move from first click to enquiry or purchase, find where they stall or leave, and redesign pages, forms and calls to action to remove avoidable friction. The work rests on evidence about your users and your pages, and it never promises a conversion figure.
Where conversions are lost
Most drop-off has an ordinary cause
A mismatch between promise and page
The ad or search result promises one thing and the landing page leads with another.
Forms that ask for too much
Long or unclear forms, or forms placed before the visitor has enough reason to complete them.
Calls to action competing with each other
Several equal-weight buttons leave visitors unsure which step is the main one.
What is included
From journey map to tested changes
- User journey mappingStages, touchpoints, user questions and decision points from first contact to the outcome you want.
- Usability and friction reviewWalkthroughs of your pages on desktop and mobile, plus analytics or recordings where you already have them, to locate where people stall.
- Conversion path designThe sequence of pages and steps, reduced to what each visitor needs in order to decide.
- Form and call-to-action designField choices, labels, error messages, button wording and placement.
- Page and section redesignHierarchy and layout changes for the pages that carry the journey.
- Test planA short list of changes to test and the measures to review, so improvements are checked rather than assumed.
Deliverables
What you receive, and what we cannot promise
You receive
- Annotated journey map
- Friction points ranked by likely impact on the journey
- Redesigned pages or sections for the agreed scope
- Form and call-to-action specifications
- Measurement and test plan
Boundaries
- Evidence depends on the data you have. Without analytics we rely on walkthroughs and sound usability principles.
- We do not guarantee conversion increases. Outcomes depend on traffic, offer, price and market.
- A/B testing needs enough traffic. Lower-traffic sites are better served by sequential changes and review.
- Building the new layouts is a separate step, through Web Engineering or your own developers.
How it works
How a journey review runs
Findings come before design, and every recommended change ties back to something we observed.
Map the journey
Goals, audiences and the current path are written down stage by stage.
Find the friction
Pages, forms and any available data are reviewed for stalls and exits.
Prioritise changes
Findings are ranked by likely effect on the journey and effort to fix.
Redesign
The highest-priority pages, forms and calls to action are redesigned.
Plan the measurement
Measures and a testing order are agreed so results can be reviewed.
Questions
Common questions
Will this increase my conversion rate?
It can remove obstacles we find, but we cannot promise a figure. We agree measures to review, then check whether the changes helped.
Do I need analytics installed?
It helps a great deal. If you have none, we start with walkthroughs and recommend measurement before bigger changes.
Is this the same as website design?
No. Website & Landing Page Design creates pages. This service examines an existing journey and addresses where people stall.
Can you improve a single form?
Yes. One form or one step of a journey is a valid scope.
