Method Media Intelligence - A Case Study
Project Overview
Project brief
Method Media intelligence is an ad-fraud preventing startup that has patented technology to help combat fake clicks and views for advertisers. The project had the following goals:
Clarify content across the site
Create a consistent message and tone
Improve the navigation experience
Exude confidence and trust via a robust content strategy plan
MMI had 2 key issues they wanted addressed:
Financial~ Users would not last long enough when visiting the site to request a demo which is a top contributor of how MMI created leads for their business
Value Proposition~ They received some feedback that the site didn't make them think the product might be worth it
My Role
I was hired by Shion Studio as a freelance UX Designer. I was tasked with creating plan for the organization of content, creating wireframes for the site and updating copy throughout the website.
Final Design
Here's a few key pages from the final design. Read on to find out how this all came together.
Discovery
UX Audit
I took some time to understand what the current website offered and where it fell short. In general the site didn't have enough opportunities for people to request a demo, lacked a clear value proposition for why it was a better choice than its competition and had poor information architecture. Here's a snapshot of the homepage of the original website from MMI.
SiteMap
The audit led me to have a clearer idea of the shortcomings of the site. This allowed me to build a sitemap to reorganize content and have a better navigation experience. Here are the highlights of how it improves on the original:
Creates 3x more opportunities to request a demo than previously had
Simplifies the navigation bar to focus on what's important
Devised a footer to place less important navigation items
Condenses pages into one when possible
Ideation, wireframing, prototyping
Include multiple images here, showing 1st and 2nd rounds of iterations.
