AmeriFirst Financial Website Design
The Project
Redesign AmeriFirst Financial’s corporate website to boost engagement and loan applications.
The Challenge
AmeriFirst Financial’s previous website had low traffic, an 87% bounce rate, and poor mobile responsiveness. It lacked SEO optimization, relevant content, and a clear user journey, leading to a poor experience and minimal conversions.
The Approach:
I partnered with the executive team to define goals and align on business objectives. From there, I created user profiles, hand-drawn and digital wireframes, and interactive prototypes using Adobe XD and Photoshop to secure buy-in. I also developed UX documentation and requirements for the third-party development team. Throughout the project, I served as the UI/UX designer, project manager, and primary liaison between stakeholders and developers.
The Impact:
Added a homepage form, resulting in a 32% increase in customer inquiries
Loan officers saw higher engagement and application rates on individual profile pages
The newly introduced mortgage calculator improved session duration and user interaction, prompting more calls to loan officers
SEO performance increased significantly, and the bounce rate dropped by 26%
The redesign not only improved usability and mobile responsiveness but also created a measurable lift in conversions and overall business performance.
