I could see more and more improvements in orders.
It was truly a wonderful experience working with akW duo and seeing them do their magic! The level of understanding of the business and the industry Matt and Ally have, the research, the no BS approach and the reports left me more confident than ever that I’m in good hands. I’m super grateful and excited to see my website climb up!
The results have exceeded our expectations.
The whole process was straightforward and they took the pains away from managing the project. Matt and his team took the creative lead and used the information we provided to create a great website.
Their attention to detail was absolutely fantastic.
So many website designers create a website that looks great, but does not initiate the customer to create action. AkW really understood this process and realise that an effective website needs to create an enquiry or a sale.
300% more inquiries than in the previous period!
This has been very successful in attracting and sustaining many more new members and taking the club forward. We are very pleased with the service, the data collection facilities and ongoing professional support.
The process was clear and we knew what to expect.
We are highly satisfied with the number of online enquiries we are receiving. Our website is now starting to show up in the top 3 positions on Google.
A very positive experience from start to finish.
A very positive experience from start to finish. Matt and his team were always on hand to answer any queries I had and the end product is exactly what I wanted and more. 100% would and will reccomend!

Great at SEO and general optimization and marketing. Always available for a phone call for any queries, even after doing the web design/SEO etc. Have seen a great increase in the number of enquiries coming through the website and facebook page.

How do you measure the success of a Shopify store after launch?

• Sales Performance: Tracking revenue, average order value, and conversion rates to assess how well the store is selling products.
• Customer Engagement: Monitoring metrics such as bounce rate, time on site, and page views to understand how visitors are interacting with your store.
• Traffic Sources: Analysing where your visitors are coming from—organic search, paid ads, social media, or direct traffic—to optimise marketing efforts.
• Customer Retention: Evaluating repeat purchase rates and customer lifetime value to gauge long-term customer loyalty.
• SEO Performance: Checking keyword rankings, organic traffic growth, and search visibility to ensure your store is easily found by potential customers.
By regularly reviewing these metrics, we can identify areas for improvement and implement strategies to enhance your store’s performance, ensuring sustained growth and success.
