🚀 My Process
I will follow this iterative process for auditing a product:
- Evaluating the UX and UI
- Understanding the Product
- Understanding the user from a fictional persona POV
- Understanding the common use journey
- Heuristic Evaluation
- Secondary Analysis
- Accessibility evaluation (A, AA, AAA check)
- Redesign
- Creating a better user flow and information architecture if needed
- Improving and redesigning the designs based on point a.
🛠️ UX and UI Evaluation
🟢 Green - It is good, keeping it as is.
🟡 Yellow - Small changes required.
🔴 Red - Removing element or changing fully.
🔵 blue - Adding new elements
🪜 Some Layout Fixtures
🎨 Redesign - Along with Secondary Analaysis
The new design incorporates all the changes and recommendation I suggested above in the evaluation, used and cleaned up the components of the existing website.
At the end of the redesign I have achieved:
- Matched AA-AAA contrast standard for all text on the page.
- Redesigned the Hero section to be cleaner.
- Enhanced sub-category/attribute section design in the Detail page
- Improved table design in Detail page
- Assumption: Increase credibility by including value propositions
- Enhanced UX by improve user control(eg: recommendation tags in hero section)
- Drew attention to the category side bar for easy navigation and also enhanced the designs
- Improved sub-category card designs in the Major Category page
- Improved responsiveness across different pages
- Improve Typography styles(Font color, font weight and line height) to ultimately improve information hierarchy
- Home Page
