Business case #1:
B.D.C. has accompanied the French leader in the home and garden equipment for the rural areas to develop their e-commerce website and offer an optimal user experience for BtoB and BtoC customers. We also helped the retailer to optimise its store locator to be more intuitive and user-friendly.

Business case #2:

Our team also conducted a complete UX audit for one of the French leaders in the fast-fashion industry to improve the visitors’ conversion into buyers.

WHAT ELEMENTS ARE PART OF THE UX?

For a better understanding of the UX elements, Jesse James Garrett, User Experience Designer, identified 5 levels:

  1. Strategy: user needs and website objectives.
  2. Features and content to meet user needs.
  3. Structure (website architecture) to ensure intuitive navigation.
  4. Framework: interface, navigation and information design to facilitate user interaction with the website.
  5. Visual design: the “look” of the website.

HOW TO IMPROVE THE UX OF YOUR WEBSITE?

  • On the overall website: 
  • Ensure that the 5 levels mentioned above are respected.
  • Use relevant and attractive content (text, images, videos) to attract users’ attention and generate emotions.
  • Personalise user experience.
  • Don’t neglect UX on mobile! Mobile represents more than 50% of web traffic for many clients.
  • Limit the page load time to less than one second per page.

53% of mobile website visitors will leave if a webpage doesn’t load within three seconds
