What an audit reveals

The difference between a store that converts and one that does not is almost always visible.

Most conversion problems are not complicated. They are just invisible until someone looks for them. Toggle between a typical store and what it looks like after a Redefine audit.

What an audit finds
Checkout friction you cannot see
Unexpected shipping costs, form field order, guest-checkout not obvious: these kill 35 to 50% of carts that were ready to buy.
Missing trust signals where buyers hesitate
No reviews above the fold, no return policy visible on product detail pages, no trust badges near the Add to Cart button. These are the moments buyers abandon.
Mobile experience that does not match desktop performance
Over 60% of traffic is mobile. If your mobile conversion rate is less than half your desktop conversion rate, the audit finds exactly why.
Page speed burning your ad spend
Every 1 second of load time reduces conversions by 7%. If you are spending on ads and your site loads in 4 seconds, a quarter of your budget is wasted before anyone sees the page.
Call-to-action copy that describes an action instead of a benefit
"Add to Cart" describes what the button does. "Ship It to Me Today" tells the buyer what they get. The audit identifies every call to action that could be working harder.

What the audit includes

Six audit modules. One complete revenue picture.

Every Redefine website conversion audit covers six modules. Each module delivers specific findings and specific recommendations with revenue impact estimates. Expand each module to see what you receive.

Heatmap and session replay analysis
Click patterns, scroll depth, rage clicks, error events
We install and run heatmaps and session recording across your highest-traffic pages for 7 to 10 days. We then analyze where visitors click, how far they scroll, where they rage-click in frustration, and which sessions end in abandonment. Every friction point becomes visible and quantified.

Full funnel mapping and drop-off analysis
Step-by-step conversion rate from landing to purchase
We map every step in your purchase funnel from first landing page to order confirmation. Each transition shows the exact drop-off rate and the estimated revenue lost at that step per month. We then rank the drop-offs by revenue impact so you know exactly where to fix first.

Mobile experience audit
Touch targets, layout, speed, and checkout user experience on real devices
Mobile drives over 60% of ecommerce traffic and converts at less than half the desktop rate. We audit your mobile experience across three device types, comparing mobile and desktop conversion rates by funnel stage, and identifying every point where the mobile experience breaks down relative to desktop.

Copy and call-to-action effectiveness review
Headlines, product descriptions, button copy, and trust language
We review every high-traffic page for copy that fails to convert. This includes headlines that describe the product instead of the benefit, call-to-action language that describes an action instead of an outcome, product descriptions with no sensory or emotional language, and missing urgency or scarcity signals. You receive rewritten examples for each finding.

Trust signal and social proof audit
Reviews, trust badges, user-generated content, return policy visibility
Buyers hesitate at predictable moments: before clicking Add to Cart, before entering payment details, before completing a first-time purchase. We identify every point where your store is missing a trust signal that could close that hesitation, and what specifically to add at each point.

Revenue-prioritized action plan
Every finding ranked by estimated monthly revenue impact
The final deliverable is not a list of problems, it is a ranked action plan. Every finding is estimated for monthly revenue impact based on your current traffic and average order value. Findings are grouped into three tiers: fix this week (high impact, low effort), fix this sprint (high impact, medium effort), and fix this quarter (high impact, strategic). You leave knowing exactly what to do next.

The Problem
The brand relied on disconnected systems with limited visibility into performance and customer behavior. The Shopify store needed conversion and user experience improvements. Marketing efforts lacked segmentation and predictive insights. Payment workflows required stronger security. Revenue was not growing proportionally with traffic growth.
The Approach
Conversion audit identified specific friction points in the purchase funnel. User experience improvements and payment workflow optimization were implemented. Post-audit, email marketing was integrated with advanced segmentation. Analytics and data infrastructure were rebuilt to support predictive decision-making.
The Result
$70K
in new revenue within the first month of implementing audit findings
  • Higher conversion rates from user experience and payment optimization across the Shopify store
  • Email marketing became a primary growth channel at approximately 50% of monthly revenue
  • Enhanced analytics capabilities supported predictive planning and positioned the brand for sustained growth

Common questions

Questions before you get your audit

Real reasons people wait before booking a conversion audit. Real answers.

Get My Conversion Audit

No commitment. No pitch. Delivered in 3 days.

The audit takes 3 business days from when we receive access. What we need from you: read access to your Google Analytics 4 account, collaborator access to your Shopify or BigCommerce store (or equivalent), and the URL of your top 5 highest-traffic pages. We install session recording tools ourselves and do not require any technical setup from your team. Your total time commitment is under 2 hours including the findings call.

A 3% conversion rate means 97 out of every 100 visitors are not buying. Stores at 3% still have significant untapped gains in mobile conversion rate, checkout completion rate, and upsell attachment. The audit identifies what is preventing you from reaching 4 to 5%, which at typical traffic volumes is often $10K to $50K in additional monthly revenue. We will tell you if the audit reveals nothing actionable: that has happened once in 40+ audits.

We audit Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, and headless ecommerce builds on any front-end framework. The audit methodology is platform-agnostic: we focus on the visitor experience and funnel behavior, not platform-specific settings. If your store is on a custom platform, let us know in the brief and we will confirm scope before starting.

The audit deliverable is the findings and prioritized action plan. Implementation is a separate engagement. Most clients take the action plan to their internal development team or use it to scope a follow-on project with Redefine. If you want us to implement findings, that becomes a conversion rate optimization engagement with A/B testing and revenue attribution built in. We can scope that on the strategy call after the audit is delivered.

The audit is meaningful from approximately 2,000 monthly unique visitors. Below that level, session recording data is too thin to identify reliable patterns, and funnel data does not segment cleanly. If your store is below 2,000 monthly visitors, the audit will still identify user experience and copy issues, but the session recording and funnel modules will be less data-rich. We flag this in the brief if it applies to your situation.
