The project aimed to achieve three primary goals: redesigning the website, enhancing user accessibility, and significantly improving page speed and SEO optimization.

Petri.com has undergone a major overhaul thanks to Enlivy. The website now boasts a more attractive design, improved user-friendliness, faster loading speeds, and better SEO optimization. Enlivy achieved this by integrating various plugins, converting hard-coded features into customizable formats, and developing advanced custom fields for better functionality. Additionally, custom post types were created to meet specific content requirements.

Enlivy had three main goals for their project: revamp the website’s design, improve user accessibility, and optimize page speed and SEO. Our team worked closely with BWW Media to rebuild petri.com with a new design that prioritized performance and user experience.
 


We paid close attention to every detail and made sure that the final product was in line with their specifications, and went above and beyond their expectations.

Our top priorities for the project:

Elevate the visual appeal, optimize the user interface (UI), and enhance the overall user experience (UX).

Introduce additional custom post types to cater to specific content requirements.

Optimize the website’s performance, with a particular emphasis on enhancing its Search Engine Optimization (SEO) speed.

Establish a secure and efficient user login and registration system.

Enhance the website’s efficiency by eliminating the use of external plugins and integrating their functionalities directly into the website’s theme.

Streamline the website’s administrative processes by transforming a substantial portion of its hard-coded features into a more accessible and easily modifiable format.

At the heart of our creative concept for the website redesign was a focus on user accessibility and speed. We sought to develop a contemporary and visually captivating design that not only appeals to the target audience but also prioritizes seamless and enjoyable navigation.

After finishing the first design phase, we conducted thorough usability testing to collect feedback and recognize areas that needed improvement. We took that feedback into account and refined key elements, including the layout, navigation, and filtering options, to enhance the user experience and provide a smooth and intuitive browsing process.

The development process commences with establishing the website’s general brand guidelines, followed by designing the new layout in Figma.

We collaborated with the client to design an intuitive and user-friendly homepage. We aimed to simplify navigation and help users find articles easily. We used clear sections and elements that effectively communicate article categories. We applied user-centric design principles to ensure visitors could access the content they needed quickly.

We are excited to share that petri.com has undergone a successful redesign. Our team worked hard to plan, develop, and test the new design to meet our client’s needs and improve the user experience. By analyzing, strategizing, and implementing effectively, petri.com has become a sleek and cohesive IT platform that caters to its tech-savvy audience.

Key implemented elements and features include:

Our team has completed the delivery of a new and improved website that boasts modern aesthetics, streamlined content, optimized performance, enhanced SEO, and a user-friendly interface. Our clients are pleased with the outcome, as we met and even exceeded their expectations.

We have meticulously attended to every aspect of our content to enhance its appearance, streamline its navigation, and boost its overall performance. Moreover, the integration of SEO principles has significantly augmented our online visibility and amplified the discoverability of our content.

Our goal with the redesign of petri.com was to create a visually appealing and user-friendly website that enhances the overall user experience. We implemented sweeping changes aligned with the client’s specifications and surpassed their expectations. With these improvements, we elevated petri.com to a new level, providing a more engaging and intuitive platform for its users.

We wrote more than 30,000 lines of code while using the DRY coding principle when redesigning petri.com, which helped us reduce the number of lines of code and improve efficiency. This principle promotes code reuse, modularity, and maintainability, making the website’s architecture scalable and easy to extend. Following DRY allowed us to avoid duplicating code, saving time and effort.
