The Challenge

This project involved migrating and upgrading a WordPress.com website, moving the business onto the advanced WordPress software. This provides greater functionality, scalability, and design flexibility for the future.

The first challenge was transferring the existing content from WordPress.com to the Business Think server, where we could install the upgraded version of WordPress. DIY platforms like WordPress.com, Squarespace, and Wix offer simple start-up solutions but can be restrictive when it comes to migrating. It was crucial to create an exact replica initially to preserve the site structure and protect search engine rankings. After technical adjustments and thorough testing, the site was successfully installed on our test server.

Next, we removed around 30% of the plugins that were unnecessary, helping to improve site speed and SEO performance. With only the essential components remaining, we began rebuilding the user experience.

Strategy and User Experience (UX)

Several sessions were held with Rachael and her team to review the marketing strategy and clarify the ideal user journey.

Jam Up! has three key audiences: parents/carers, professionals, and supporters—each requiring tailored messaging in both tone and content.

The website was therefore structured to offer three distinct user pathways, allowing visitors to self-identify and follow a customised journey.

This approach improves engagement and increases conversion.
