A digital benchmarking project will typically rate your website and marketing activities against immediate competitors, or the best companies in Adelaide, Australia or globally
Smaller companies may want a simple report of a few pages. Large companies normally need comprehensive data and such reports are considerably larger.
The basics are:

There is a strong body of evidence that shows that simplicity is critical in effective website design.
For example, it was referenced in the research study Website design: Viewing the web as a cognitive landscape: “… the implications of these results reinforce what many site designers have tried to articulate: make it simple" (Abdi Meftuhuu, Journal of Business Research 2014 p. 793).
The crucial thing to understand is that simple does not mean plain and it does not mean simplistic (lacking in strategy).
Comparing various approaches, the research cited above stated “adopting a minimalistic approach to the design of the home page with eye-catching but appropriate graphics and categories that draw the web surfer further into the site appears to be more effective.
“Web design should not result in information overload. The goal, rather, should be to give access to the information web surfers’ desire in the most expedient way possible.
“Hence, the design goal should be access not abundance.”
Look at the Apple Store. The design is simple but powerful. It is easy to navigate and shopping is a breeze. The white space allows the products to leap off the page.
Simple? Yes. Simplistic? No.
Boylen works with a range of content management systems. We're always happy to discuss the pros and cons of each, and what best suits your needs. Let's talk!
Absolutely. You should have the ability to make most of the changes you want to – and we only use content management systems (CMS) that are user friendly.
For example, the ability to add pages, add or delete text and images, insert videos, write new blogs, place new products, adjust shipping rates etc would be standard.
Here’s a rough sequencing of how we set this up:
Technically, it’s not difficult to move your current website across to Boylen.
At the business level, which can get personal, most Adelaide web design companies cooperate in a professional manner. You own your website and you are paying your current vendor for their services.
The process to move you across to Boylen is:
1. We agree on the best hosting plan and charges.
2. You provide access to your current hosting environment to perform the migration. It can vary slightly but normally we would ask for a link, username and password.
3. We also require access to the DNS for the domain name, or you will need to perform a DNS update after the website migration.
4. If the DNS is with another third party (eg. an IT provider) we can assist and liaise with them if needed.
In fact, if you prefer that we deal direct with your current website development company for all aspects of the move, we are happy to handle it for you.
Our Adelaide-based Support team is on hand to help every step of the way. When it comes time to update your website design or undertake a complete new website development, you will be assigned one of our experienced project managers.
Let’s get you started!
The numbers don’t lie. When you design a great user experience (UX), people will click where you want them to click and spend on what you are offering.
Here we present “UX by the numbers”.
User experience and repeat business
Customers who have the best experiences are liable to spend up to 140% more than those with poor experiences.
Even better, they remain with you for nearly six times as long.
That’s the good news from research company Medallia, which undertook a study to quantify the “the impact of customer experience on future spending behaviour”.
“Mediocre” is an ugly word
IBM analysis shows that to stay competitive, it is critical to provide a good digital experience for your customers.
However, it reports “the digital experience is still mediocre”.
For example, only 18% of people say their experiences using websites or mobile apps on smartphones are “excellent”.
This provides a great business opportunities if you can join the 18%.
What Are Others Doing?
To recap: a great customer experience brings people back and feeds a healthy bottom line.
That’s why 95% of companies are planning to increase their investments in their “online channels” (Econsultancy research).
Where will their spend go? Here are some common answers:
Mobile design experience
More than half of the people searching for a business in their local area, do so on a mobile device.
If they get grumpy with your site (for example, they can’t read the text because it’s designed for a desktop screen), then Google says the majority will leave immediately and probably head for a competitor’s site.
But if your mobile website works a treat, “a user is 67% more likely to buy a product or use a service”.
So even if your website design is responsive and it reorganises its layout to suit the device, does it really offer a great experience on a small screen. When did you last check? When did you last get someone to complete a key task on your mobile site? Or your elderly mother with below average computing skills?
There’s a difference between ticking the box that says “Website must be responsive”, and actually honing it to provide a first rate, well designed user experience on a phone screen.
