cip1 web design concept

Concept

Before Cip1 came to MAK Digital Design, they were running both of their websites on an outdated platform. They felt as though it was holding them back from growing their business. The inability to implement modern features and a modern look to their website was another concern Cip1 had. What we believe they needed most was a platform that could accommodate their needs and provide an environment for them to continue to grow their business.

After carefully reviewing all of their options with Cip1, they decided that the BigCommerce platform would be the best option for the future of their business. On the BigCommerce platform they are able to utilize more modern features and experience a robustness they weren't able to on their previous platform. Along with exceptional BigCommerce development there was an emphasis put on BigCommerce search engine optimization. Using strategies like keyword research and on-page optimization, and editing meta data, MAKDigital was able to increase the overall organic positions of Cip1's search engine results.

Along with the migration from Volusion to BigCommerce, we also completely redesigned both of their websites. The redesign included a new home page, new product pages, new category pages, and much more. Every aspect of their BigCommerce website design was built with a "mobile first" mentality, ensuring a seamless transition on all devices (responsive design).

Redesign

As stated above, their new BigCommerce website design covered many aspects of their website. The most important update was the increased amount of mobile responsiveness ensuring that customers on any device would have a positive experience engaging with the website. On top of that, we also added a more user-friendly layout to categories, including easy to navigate sections for Featured Products and Most Popular Products. Previously, to access different categories you would need to locate the “All Categories” tab which was hidden snuggly at the top left of the page. Now, the main categories are right in front of the users face and easily accessible, whilst simultaneously highlighting the “All Categories” page in a shade of red that is easier to locate and stands out.

We implemented BigCommerce Stencil technology to ensure a seamless and responsive user experience. The collaboration with BigCommerce design partners enabled us to create a more cohesive and professional appearance. Additionally, we focused on BigCommerce page speed optimization to enhance the performance and loading times of the website, ensuring a smooth and efficient user journey.
