Website Conversion Goals

A conversion goal can be minor and cumulative – view product – or major – add to cart + complete transaction – and varies depending on your business type.

When developing a new website or a redesign strategy, we want to be sure to clearly define what conversion goals are best suited for your business and optimize your site towards those goals.

Examples of varying degrees of website conversion goals:
