Isn't a complete website redesign just a big expense?We see it as an investment in your most important salesperson—one that works 24/7. As this case shows, a strategic, UX-driven redesign doesn't just "look better"; it directly increases sales, improves the ROI of all your other marketing channels, and strengthens your brand.
Will I lose all my Google rankings if I redesign my site?This is a common and valid concern. However, our process is specifically designed to prevent this and, in fact, improve your SEO. We perform a meticulous SEO migration, including a comprehensive 301 redirect plan, to ensure Google understands the new structure and passes all your hard-earned authority to the new pages. The improvements in speed and user engagement that follow almost always lead to better rankings.
How long does a project like this take?A full redesign project of this scope typically takes between 1 to 3 months, broken down into key phases: discovery and strategy, design and prototyping, development, and launch.
Do we need to provide all the photography and text for the new site?It's a collaborative process. We provide the strategic framework, the design, and the technical build. We strongly encourage our clients to invest in professional photography, as it's the single most important element for a visual brand like a winery. Our copywriters can then work with you to craft a compelling story, using your team's expertise to ensure every detail is authentic.
What happens after the new website is launched?The launch is just the beginning. We continuously monitor the site's performance using analytics and heatmaps. This allows us to identify new opportunities for A/B testing and iterative improvements, ensuring your website continues to evolve and perform at its peak.
Our brand has a unique heritage. How do you ensure the new design reflects our story and isn't just a generic template?This is the most important part of our process. The very first phase, "Discovery," is dedicated to immersing ourselves in your brand. We conduct workshops with your team, study your history, and define your unique value proposition. We never use templates. Every design is a custom creation, architected to tell
your specific story in a way that resonates with
your ideal customer.
How do you measure if the new design is actually better?We are data-driven. Success is measured against the concrete goals we set at the start of the project. We track key performance indicators (KPIs) before and after the launch, including:
- Conversion Rate (the most important metric);
- Average Order Value;
- Cart Abandonment Rate;
- Core Web Vitals (speed scores);
- Bounce Rate and Time on Page.
What platform do you build on (Shopify, WordPress/WooCommerce, etc.)?We are platform-agnostic, which means we recommend the best technical solution for your specific business needs, not just the one we're most familiar with. For a DTC brand like a winery, we often recommend platforms like Shopify or WooCommerce for their powerful e-commerce capabilities, but the final decision is always made based on your long-term goals for scalability, inventory management, and marketing integrations.
