We build Shopify and WooCommerce sites with a technical-first approach that combines user experience, conversion-rate optimisation, and back-end analytics to support revenue-focused outcomes and scalable growth.
We implement GA4, Google Tag Manager, server-side tracking, and data pipeline practices (ETL) to reduce signal loss and align marketing metrics with actual revenue and customer journeys.
CRO is integrated throughout design and development: we use quantitative analytics and A/B testing to identify friction, iterate page layouts and copy, and prioritise changes that increase revenue per visitor.
Design decisions are evaluated by measurable impacts on conversion rate, average order value, customer lifetime value, and acquisition cost, with priorities set to improve profitability rather than vanity metrics.
We handle both new builds and redesigns as well as migrations, performance optimisation, and technical debt remediation while preserving or improving revenue-critical tracking and integrations.

Funnel-Driven Content
A website redesign is more than visual refresh-it's a chance to realign content with business goals. Use this content marketing checklist for website redesign projects to protect organic traffic, preserve link equity, and optimise pages for conversion. The checklist focuses on US ecommerce and B2B scenarios, prioritising revenue growth over vanity metrics and ensuring attribution-friendly tracking during migration.
Practical tip: prioritize pages that drive the most revenue or high-intent leads. For example, if a Shopify store has an AOV of $80 and a product page drives 250 orders/year, even a small dip in visibility can cost thousands-so treat those pages as migration-critical.
This checklist works with technical migration practices. If you need a broader service overview that includes both content and technical work, see our services page: Prebo Digital services. For project scoping examples and agency background, our homepage has client-focused case framing: Prebo Digital homepage.
Include a simple conversion tracking diagram in tech specs: list events, where they trigger (client/server), and how they map to reporting. That diagram becomes the single source of truth for QA during launch.
Map content to the funnel: TOF (top-of-funnel) drives discovery, MOF supports evaluation, BOF converts. Using this content marketing checklist for website redesign ensures every page has a clear funnel role and conversion objective.
For teams tracking MER, CAC, and LTV, tagging pages by funnel stage makes cohort analysis actionable across paid media platforms like Google Ads or Meta.
| Funnel Stage | Primary Events | Platform |
|---|---|---|
| TOF | page_view, newsletter_signup | GA4 / Server |
| MOF | product_view, demo_request | GA4 / CRM |
| BOF | add_to_cart, purchase | Server-side / Payment Platform |
Include a rollback plan for the first 48-72 hours if traffic or conversions drop significantly. Communicate expected temporary volatility to stakeholders and set measurable thresholds for intervention.
Use the content marketing checklist for website redesign to move from launch to continuous improvement: prioritise CRO tests on pages with high traffic and revenue impact, then iterate content and layout with A/B or multivariate testing. Combine server-side analytics and platform signals to keep attribution accurate.
For agencies and in-house teams looking to outsource parts of this checklist, Prebo Digital outlines technical-first services that pair tracking, CRO, and paid media strategy to protect revenue during redesigns: see service details.

Scenario (US ecommerce): a product page with 10,000 annual organic sessions, 1.5% conversion rate, and $80 average order value generates roughly $12,000/year (estimate). If content optimisation and improved funnel UX lift conversion to 2.0%, projected revenue increases to $16,000-an estimated incremental $4,000/year from a single page. Use these estimates to prioritise pages for the checklist.
A final item on the content marketing checklist for website redesign: schedule a 30-, 60-, and 90-day post-launch review to compare traffic, conversions, and revenue against pre-launch baselines.
