  • A more fluid user experience: An audit will assess the effectiveness of your search features and the structure of your product categories.
  • Improved SEO: Your site’s content should be SEO-friendly across the board. A website audit will outline opportunities for improved SEO.

What you can expect from an audit

If you have never had a website audit, you may wonder what the process is like and whether it will interrupt your productivity. These are legitimate questions that we are happy to answer. Here is a look at what you can expect during your website audit process:

Step One: We examine your website through a customer lens

The first thing our team will do is to visit your customer-facing website. In addition to evaluating your site’s overall appearance and design, we will screen for inefficiencies and glitches in the browsing and purchasing process. We will also assess your site’s ability to engage your customers and your site’s performance on mobile, tablet, and desktop.

Step Two: We review the back end of your website

Customers may not be able to see the back end of your website, but it is just as important as your site’s front end. So during the next phase of your audit, we will go through your site’s back end to see if you are taking full advantage of all the opportunities that enable you to optimize your website. For example, we will look at your database, apps, and applications that allow your website to function fully.

Step Three: We provide you with a report of our findings

Upon completing your website audit, we will organize our findings and summarize them in a report. As no two websites are exactly alike, your report will be full of feedback and suggestions that are specific to your unique site. Here is a look at what you can expect to receive in your report:

  • A summary of your site’s strengths and weaknesses
  • Recommended services that will address your site’s problems
  • Solutions that will generate more revenue by improving the customer experience

We know you are eager to improve your site quickly, so strive to have your customized report completed within 5 business days. One of our specialists will also be available to review audit findings in detail and answer any questions you may have.

What you can do to ensure a successful audit

As the owner or operator of your e-commerce business, you play a valuable role in the website audit process. In fact, we will ask you for a few pieces of important information that will help us deliver superb results. Here are a few things we will need from you in order to kick off the audit process:
  • Basic contact details, including your name, your website URL, and your email address
