Learn From Research
Although the job content is only about one webpage, certain amount of research and interviews had been conducted, in order to get the right balance between client and user expectations.
Client Interview
Talking to client is effective to help locating the target users group from their point of view. Client create the new marketing page to attract new customer to use their service, they expect to gain new business from legal and accounting firm through the webpage.
User Interview
We have shown the current webpage to few users, including users who work in legal firm, below are their comments:
User’s comment:
1. Looks non-legit
2. Banner photos and fonts are confusing
3. Button”想了解更多” – expect to see more information instead of making a call
Translation: ("想了解更多" means "want to know more?")
4. Law firm concerns IT infrastructure service rather than marketing service
Expert Review
After gathering feedbacks from users, I performed a heuristic evaluation to the webpage. Review as follow:
1. Excessive buttons on the page to contact with the company, stopped user to scroll down the page and affect user flow.
1a. - Top right corner “Start Trial Service” link to website “CALL NOW” page, so the function is duplicated and become meaningless.
1b. - Top right corner “Whatsapp icon” – is not aligned to page design.
1c. - Main Banner Button”想了解更多” – action to call in first button of the page is violating user flow.
Translation: ("想了解更多" means "want to know more?")
2. Can there be pricing for “虛擬桌面”, to align the content with other service.
Translation: ("虛擬桌面" means "Virtual Desktop")
3. Fill in form at the bottom of the page – if client are interest in your service, do they want to wait for your call?
4. 想參與試用服務? – so does it cost money or not?
Translation: ("想參與試用服務?" means "Want to join our trial service?")

Other Changes and comments:
1. The IS banner is not a good idea in a service selling page, should stay in company information page.
