Higo.id Website Improvement

Background:

Background:

As part of my UI/UX bootcamp at Purwadhika Technology School, Jakarta, in 2022, I completed a personal study case focusing on enhancing the user experience for the Higo.id website, an e-commerce platform that offers digital products like gift cards, mobile top-ups, and gaming vouchers. The objective was to identify usability issues and propose improvements to optimize the site for better conversion rates, user satisfaction, and seamless navigation.

Project Scope:

User Research:

  • Conducted interviews and surveys with users to understand their pain points when purchasing digital products, including difficulties in navigation and checkout, and confusion around product categories.

  • Created personas representing typical users of the platform, such as gamers, gift buyers, and mobile users, to guide the design process.

  • Pain Points Identified:

    • Navigation Confusion: Users struggled with finding specific products due to the unclear categorization of items and a cluttered homepage.

    • Complex Checkout: The multi-step checkout process was long and led to drop-offs, especially on mobile devices.

    • Limited Visual Appeal: The website's design lacked the modern, engaging aesthetics expected by its younger, tech-savvy audience.

  • Design Solutions:

    • Enhanced Navigation and Product Filtering: Reorganized the site’s structure with a clearer hierarchy for categories (e.g., gift cards, gaming vouchers, mobile top-ups), and implemented filtering options to allow users to quickly find the products they’re looking for.

    • Streamlined Checkout: Simplified the checkout process by reducing the number of steps, introducing a guest checkout option, and optimizing the form fields to require less input from users. The checkout experience was also optimized for mobile responsiveness.

    • Visual Design Refresh: Updated the UI with a cleaner, more engaging design that uses bright colors and dynamic visuals in line with Higo.id’s tech-focused brand. The visual improvements aimed to make the website feel more modern and appealing to a younger demographic.

    • Improved Call to Action (CTA): Strengthened the CTAs by using more prominent button placements and colors, ensuring users are guided effectively to complete purchases or explore products.

  • Prototyping and Usability Testing:

    • Developed high-fidelity wireframes and prototypes in Figma to demonstrate the improved user flows for navigation, product discovery, and checkout.

    • Conducted usability tests with a sample group to validate the effectiveness of the redesign. Based on feedback, made further adjustments to simplify the user journey and enhance mobile performance.

  • Hypothetical Outcomes:

    • Projected improvements in user engagement and conversion rates, with potential reductions in cart abandonment by 25% due to the simplified checkout process.

    • Hypothetical metrics indicated an increase in product discovery and purchases due to the enhanced navigation and filtering options.
