Key problems

White Maison De Couture faced several challenges that required the development of a new e-commerce website:

 

1. Lack of Modern E-Commerce Features:

The previous website lacked an integrated shopping cart, payment gateway, and essential e-commerce functionalities, limiting the brand’s ability to convert visitors into customers.

2. Outdated Design and User Experience:

The design did not reflect the luxury aesthetic of White Maison De Couture, and poor navigation made it difficult for visitors to explore collections and make purchases.

3. Mobile Accessibility Issues:

The old website was not optimized for mobile, which affected the experience for a significant portion of their customer base, leading to missed sales opportunities.

4. Limited SEO and Online Visibility:

The website struggled with poor SEO and visibility in search engines, resulting in low organic traffic and difficulty reaching a broader audience.
