Design and Build
Powered by data and user experience
At Vertical Leap, we believe that design is about more than just how things look but also about how they are used. A great website or landing page needs to impress aesthetically and provide a user-friendly experience that is intuitive and fully satisfies the visitor.
How we work
User experience drives design
Our design team understands user requirements, organising options in a logical way and planning user journeys.
Before we even think about how your website, email or landing page will look, we examine:
- How it needs to work
- Who are you targeting – user profiles, what you want them to do onsite
- What are you trying to achieve (selling products, educating your audience, shop window)
- How it will scale to size
- How it will work across devices
- How it will be shared
- How it will suit the different media used by your customers
- How will it be found
Initial research and investment in this area is pivotal for creating an effective, long-term solution for your customers.
One website for all devices
Gone are the days of designing different websites for different screen sizes. When our design team builds your website they will do it once and it will work across desktop PCs, tablets and mobiles. We’ll build you an SEO friendly, responsive website that will work across all devices.
This means that every visitor to your website will always experience the most user-friendly journey possible, no matter what device they are viewing it on, this will reduce bounce rates and increase time spent onsite.
Better visibility means better performance
User-behaviour and preferences evolve; so should your website. We use our deep data platform, Apollo Insights, to continually monitor the performance of your website. We track the entire user journey to identify:
- Which pages are getting found in search results
- How long people are spending on each page
- Which areas of the website lose the most visitors
- Which conversion paths are the most effective
- Which pages have the highest bounce rate or engagement
- We A/B test to ensure the best possible results
This insight allows us to continually tweak the design to ensure that your website's performance is always improving.
