A Thane-based SME needed a modern website that sales could trust — fast, mobile-ready and wired to enquiry tracking instead of a legacy brochure that broke on phones.
Client: Anonymised SME services companyIndustry: EcommerceLocation: ThanePrimary service: Software Development
Overview
The company’s old site was slow, hard to update and disconnected from CRM and analytics. Leadership wanted a rebuild that supported both local credibility and future digital marketing without overbuilding custom features.
The Challenge
Legacy WordPress theme caused mobile layout issues and plugin conflicts.
Service pages were outdated and not editable by the internal team.
Forms submitted to email inboxes with no CRM or event tracking.
No component system — every new page required developer time.
Objectives
Launch a performant, mobile-first site with clear service and contact paths.
Give marketing a CMS they could update without breaking layouts.
Integrate forms, analytics events and basic CRM handoff.
Preserve SEO equity from existing indexed URLs where possible.
Starting Situation
Technical audit of the legacy site, URL inventory, analytics review, and workshops with sales on which pages influenced deals. Scope was prioritised to avoid a year-long rebuild.
Our Strategy
Migrate to a maintainable stack with reusable page sections.
Map 301 redirects for retired URLs and merge thin duplicates.
Build service templates with FAQs, proof blocks and strong CTAs.
Instrument forms, calls and key button clicks before launch.
Phase 2 backlog for blog and resource hub after core pages ship.
