How We Redesigned A Fashion Ecommerce Website To Boost Online Sales COMPANY NAME: Wow Trendz STRATEGY: Website Design | Magento Founded in San Diego, California in 2014, WowTrendz is a go-to eCommerce site for stylish women’s shoes and accessories at an affordable price. With a brand personality as fun and playful as their products, they make women across the country feel stunning by offering fashionable items for every occasion from a casual summer day to a first-date and even a night on a town. The Challenge To help their business stand out, the smartboost team was tasked with creating a new online user experience for their complex site including building and designing an eCommerce site that would showcase 1500 products, reflect WowTrendz’s fun and fashion-forward brand and appeal to their target audience of young women. When developing WowTrendz’s new site on Magento, we crafted a strategy that focused on ensuring a quick load time for their 1500 revolving SKUs, reducing the number of abandoned carts, assuring that all pages were user friendly, optimizing for SEO as well as making it mobile-friendly. Another main challenge that WowTrendz faced was reduced online visibility due to a disconnect between WowTrendz and Google Shopping Campaigns. Our Tactics Since the outdated site was a major challenge, we began this project by working on the UX design. Our web team focused their time on trying to get inside the mind of the visitor. Specifically on creating a simple, seamless, and enjoyable experience that would really speak to WowTrendz’s target demographic. The idea was not just to deliver information quickly, but to tell a story that would resonate with customers and even make them smile.
