Our Approach and Solutions

Our team implemented a range of solutions to address Cranbourn’s needs and ensure the websites functioned seamlessly while also representing the brand’s premium image.

Website Performance Optimization

Cranbourn's websites were experiencing slow load times, which impacted the user experience. To resolve this, we migrated their websites to a new server that offered much better performance. This move was crucial in speeding up the sites and ensuring faster load times for visitors. Additionally, we integrated Cloudflare’s CDN (Content Delivery Network) and Jetpack, both of which helped improve the site's speed and security. These updates ensured faster load times, reduced latency, and a smoother browsing experience for users worldwide.

Our partnership with Cranbourn has been truly exceptional and rewarding. From the very beginning, their team was actively involved in the process. They shared their vision for the brand with us and provided valuable feedback throughout the project's completion. We worked together as a team to fine-tune every detail, from website optimization to ensuring that the design reflected the luxury aspect of their brand.

The client appreciated how we handled the website’s layout and functionality. Our team was able to meet the deadline and deliver everything the client needed, exceeding their expectations. Cranbourn was pleased with the results, and we continue to provide ongoing maintenance and support to ensure that the websites stay up-to-date and perform well.

The End Result

The end result was faster, more intuitive, and completely transformed websites that reflect Cranbourn’s environmental and ethical values. The new server and optimizations we implemented made the sites faster, and the consistent design across all pages gave them a polished, cohesive look. The improvements made in the backend helped the team manage the stores more easily, and the automated review system helped them build better customer relationships while also encouraging repeat purchases.

Overall, the websites now operate smoothly, with better performance, easier management, and higher customer satisfaction. These improvements have helped Cranbourn grow its online presence while delivering a smooth, luxurious shopping experience for its customers.
