Each project brings its own challenges and learnings. Success comes from repeating the good, fixing the bad and avoiding the ugly. That's the theory anyway.
Evidence before you spend
A useful assessment is prioritised and actionable. It doesn't hand you a long list of every possible issue. It shows which problems are highest impact and easiest to fix, which need a bigger project such as a migration or a structure redesign, and which are low priority.
The result is a starting point for strategy, not an audit that leaves you anxious.
What you get:
- Priorities you can act on. A clear view of what to fix first, and what can wait.
- A report for two audiences. A summary for senior stakeholders, and detail for the technical team.
- A foundation for what's next. The scope of work, and a base for your approach to market.
Our approach to site assessments
Start with your priorities
We meet you and your stakeholders to agree what to focus on, and gather any documentation and research that already exists.
Review the site from several angles
The review covers accessibility, SEO, design, content model, functionality, roles, content moderation, and migration. It can run in parallel streams, so it doesn't take long.
Write the report for two audiences
A summary states the state of the site and its needs for senior stakeholders. A detailed section covers the current state and next steps for the technically minded.
Recommend next steps
We propose actions to fix and improve the site, and estimate the scope of work required. That gives you a base for your approach to market.
Frequently asked questions
It's a structured review of a site's technical health, accessibility, performance, security, content, and information architecture. It's usually the right first step when a site feels like it's underperforming but you're not sure why, before you commit budget to a redesign or migration based on guesswork.
A prioritised, actionable report. It shows which problems are highest impact and lowest effort to fix, which need a bigger project such as a migration or a structure redesign, and which are low priority. It's a starting point for strategy.
Yes. An honest assessment of current functionality, integration needs, and technical debt is the evidence you need to decide well, rather than defaulting to what you have or paying for PaaS when SaaS would do.
An assessment is a one-off diagnosis. Monitoring is continuous and automated. You need both.
