Strategic thinking: the springboard of the whole project
We kicked off the project by analysing all the main features of the affinity segment. Who are our users going to be? What are they going to look for on our website?
By trying to answer these questions, we got a better understanding of how to structure our information architecture to both cater for the needs of the audience and to deliver the key communication messages in the most direct way.
Ensuring the best user experience
A key component of todays’ web design is the quality of the user's interaction with and perceptions of a system. The team worked on improving user experience, acting on its different components: page usability, quality of the content and giving the interface a pleasant look and feel. By simultaneously leveraging all these values, we ensured that the Willis Towers Watson platform will keep users on the page and drive interaction.
Design solutions for a warmer Look&Feel
Communicating the value of intangible products and services can be daunting.
The introduction of illustration as a hallmark of the platform’s visual identity helped make a serious subject easier to digest, rendering it more approachable and friendly even for a non-technical audience.
Tweaking content for a better SEO
With Search Engine Optimisation as a primary concern for every digital project, we worked on increasing traffic to the site by means of a careful keyword strategy, combined with a streamlined page structure. Our web team works continuously to keep the content fresh and relevant, attract Google’s attention and intercept users who are searching online.
