Optimization Plan
Trend 1 Goal Funnel: Out of 10,119 visitors only 40% of them made it from the Order Page to
the Billing and Shipping Page.
Figure 1: Goal Funnel Report
SMART Goal: Increase funnel conversion from Order Page to Billing and Shipping by
20% over the next 60 days.
o KPI: Conversion Rate. An increase in customers proceeding from the Order
Page to Billing and Shipping should show an increase in final sales. This existing
Goal Funnel report will be used to follow page movement and sales.
Trend 1 Action Items
Action item 1: Provide a discount to random customers when trying to leave the Order
Page instead of proceeding to billing and shipping.
o Challenge: Some customers could simply be leaving to add something to their
order and would be more discouraged seeing they missed out on a code from
backing out.
Solution: Make sure a button to continue shopping is provided and
noticeable to the consumer, hitting the continue shopping button instead of
going backwards would negate this discount offer hit.
Action item 2: Provide improved call to actions that are not of the generic nature to pull
customers into the next page within the Goal Funnel.
o Challenge: Some people do not read the call to actions and simply click a button
to proceed or exit.
Solution: Make the call to action enticing or comedic and easy to read to
make sure the greatest number of potential customers see it.
Trend 2 Conversion of Paid/Non-paid Traffic: Paid traffic is netting the company a low
conversion rate for what is spent on Paid Traffic ads.
Figure 2: Ecommerce Overview Conversion Rate
SMART Goal: Increase the paid traffic conversion rate by 4% over the next 30 days.
6. 6
o KPI: Paid Traffic Conversion Rate. Tracking the amount of paid traffic
consumers that purchase our product will provide is with proper insight and allow
for adjustments to be made as needed.
Trend 2 Action Items
Action item 1: Provide a special discount to those who enter the site from a location
related to paid traffic.
o Challenge: Some people will enter the site name directly in the URL bar instead
of clicking on the link.
Solution: provide a how did you hear about us checkbox at the order page
that would automatically apply discounts to those who click that they
heard about the company from an paid traffic area (this will only take
place for a set amount of time to reduce potential abuse)
Action item 2: Make use of a scroll map tool so that we can see where customers are
dropping off our landing page this can help provide the best placement for the call to
action.
o Challenge: Some people will be leaving the pages not because of page length but
because of something else.
Solution: Combine this tool with a heatmap for further pinpointing of
problematic areas of the website.
Trend 3 Bounce Rate: The bounce rate has room to be reduced. Talia di Napoli is sitting about
average currently and could be easily reduced into excellent numbers. Obviously reducing the
new visitor bounce rate should and will be priority.
Figure 3: Dashboard Site Usage
SMART Goal: Reduce the Bounce Rate of all visitors by 7% over the next 60 days.
o KPI: Bounce Rate. The bounce rate metric will allow us to monitor the set
goals and make changes as needed over the course of the month.
Trend 3 Action Items
Action item 1: Provide extra insight into the story of the company or pizza history
throughout the site, people enjoy captivating story telling.
o Challenge: People may be overwhelmed with too much storytelling.
Solution: Provide these bits of storytelling only in acceptable areas. Such
as on each type of pizza with a short sentence or two on its history and
date of creation.
7. 7
Action item 2: Improvement of existing SEO with high-value traffic targeted keywords.
o Challenge: Finding words that are high value can take time and special attention
is needed.
Solution: SEO should be monitored on a weekly basis with tweaks and
improvements being made when needed. The first month should be used
for finding the write SEO and the following month should be reaping the
benefits with improved conversion.
Conclusion
