Brand Guide
Analyzing the Data
Devices
After finalizing the brand guide, I proceeded to analyze the device data to gain a deeper understanding of how users were engaging with the website. This analysis yielded valuable insights into the screen size that holds the utmost relevance for the users. Despite mobile being the preferred device among users, I ensured that the screens are optimized for any screen size, regardless of the device used.
Popular Pages
By analyzing the most frequently visited pages on the website, I gained valuable insights into the priorities of the majority of users visiting the site. Armed with this data, I dedicated extra attention to optimizing these pages, aiming to provide users with a seamless and satisfying browsing experience.
Sessions
Upon reviewing the overall user data of the website, I extracted key metrics such as the monthly user count, the average number of pages visited per user, the depth of scrolling on a page, and the average active viewing time spent on the content. The insight I gained was that placing the most critical content and messages above 50% of the page ensures they are prominently visible to the user. I have applied this knowledge while updating the individual screens to enhance their effectiveness.
Visual Updates
Donate
In order to minimize visual distractions that diverted the user's attention from the donation call-to-action, I chose a single banner image with a clean white background that focuses solely on the donation text. This consistent secondary screen layout aligns perfectly with the brand guide.
