  2. Analyzing Usability .com Performing a complete website review is rarely easy. I've found that you can start a site analysis intending to spend just a few minutes looking over it only to find that it quickly spirals into a multi-hour marathon of research. Complete website reviews can be time consuming and often produce many more hours of work beyond that. One of the problems is that people tend want to skip right to search engine optimization forgetting that users matter. Many people want to rush into the marketing without realizing that the website itself is part of the marketing process. You don't have to have a perfectly usable site in order to rank well in search engines, but it is increasingly difficult to rank a site without a strong usability focus. Let’s do a quick usability scan… Website Analysis presented by: Jennifer L. Pricci 646.246.5176 jennifer@jenniferpricci.com

  3. Key Observations • Website DesignCrunch.comis user-friendly and the overall design is clean. There is a lot of valuable content on Crunch.comwhich makes overcoming the challenge of clutter difficult. Crunch.comsuccessfully does this.However, because there is so much good content some of it has become buried by multi-tiered navigation. The goals of this website should be clearly defined and the online tools which accomplish these goals should be highlighted. • Website navigationSite wide navigation, including top, bottom and side navigation, is user-friendly and allows visitors to find what they are looking for. To increase readability I recommend increasing point size where possible. • ContentThe content of your website is your #1 sales tool. Content weighs heavily both in terms of how users interact with your website as well as how visitors are able to determine what you offer and what each page of your website is about. The site is clearly written for visitors and provides detailed information about what the Crunch membership experience is.

  4. Key Observations continued • Home PageYour home page is the single most crucial page of your site. It is essentially your store front. Your home page should identify your site and direct your visitors to the most important information, the information they are most likely coming to your site for. The site can benefit from a bit more focus driving users more readily to conversion areas. In addition the CrunchNO JUDGEMENTS motto should somehow be incorporated. • About Us PageVisitors that find their way to your About Us page tend to have a higher conversion rate than those that don‘t.The About Us page is buried in the footer navigation. The site could benefit bringing About Us into the top nav bar. This is particularly important to drive the NO JUDGEMENTS brand positioning. • Contact Us PageThe Contact Us page could be considered the absolutely most important page on your site. Even if the rest of your site succeeds in the goals, if visitors fail to find the information they need to contact you then you will bring their experience to a screeching halt.

  5. Key Observations continued Where Crunch.comsuccessfully incorporates a highly visible locations map on the homepage as well as several links to contact information, there is no Contact Us nav item which is best practices and something users expect. I recommend including a Contact Us nav item that links to http://www.crunch.com/Locations.aspx • FAQs PageBuilding a FAQs page enhances your visitor's experience, giving them much needed information and possibly saving them a phone call. Keep these pages focused on providing information that isn't available anywhere else and make sure they are easy to find and easy to read. • Site MapsSite maps provide a dual purpose: They provide search engine spiders easy access to all of your site pages and they provide site visitors easy access to all of your site pages. Incorporate a site map that is current and easy to find. • Audience EngagementCustomer engagement goes beyond just getting the customer's attention, you must keep their attention. This can be done by providing your visitors near immediate gratification. Use of flash, video and blogs is excellent

  6. Analyzing Marketing Efficacy Website marketing recognizes that the greatest likelihood of selling your products/services exists with a targeted, well-qualified, motivated buyer. Your website offers the most cost effective, direct route to a qualified lead/sales opportunity. However, the Internet is a very fluid landscape on which to build your marketing. On a very regular basis, search engines, directories, and linking partnerships are consolidated, change their method of inclusion or disappear entirely. Let’s explore marketing efficacy…

  15. 120 tweets BEFORE • I’m not standing in the group fitness studio and there aren’t any pieces of fitness equipment, exotic or mundane at my feet. For a group fitness class, in my experience anyway, this is fairly novel. • What I am doing, is standing on a treadmill in the area of the gym that I always refer to as the ‘cardio area’ (I’m not sure if there’s another name for it, a better name for it, a more descriptive name for it, but it’s the place where all the machines that make you go sweat, sweat, sweat, pant, pant, pant live) and, as such, not specifically designated for group fitness. That’s okay, however, because Crunch is about taking your thinking outside of the box when it comes to working out and this is no different. • The class is Tread N’ Shred and as we prepare to get underway, our instructor has each of us mount a treadmill within a general cluster. Once everyone is aboard, we’re off, warming up at a moderate pace for a few minutes before kicking things into a higher gear. ‘Higher’ being the operative word as we move right into a climb, slowly nudging both our speed and incline ever upward. Each minute that goes by, we’re instructed to – if we can – make things steeper. Ultimately we max out at 12 (mind you we started at 2), which, Spinal Tap fan that I am, is one higher than I ever thought you could go. • With our climb over, we move into ‘side steps’, which are exactly what they sound like. We turn first to our right and, with both the incline and speed brought back down to humane levels, run in a motion that’s lateral. Which takes a little getting used to. Again, just to keep things fun, we ratchet the incline back up at 60 second intervals. We’re encouraged to use the treadmill’s rails if need be, and I find that need does be. Once we’ve worked our right sides for about five minutes we then work our left sides. • We finish the workout with sprints, which involve 15 seconds of a sort of resting pace and 45 seconds of going all out, which we’re told should be anywhere from 6 mph to 8 mph. I used to us the treadmill a lot and 6 mph was a speed I’d stay at for the bulk of my workout. It got me good and sweaty, but I was feeling ambitious. So, when it was time to spike up the speed, I went for the big 8. At first I felt Gazelle-like, however, that euphoria was short lived and, coming into the final seconds of the workout, I was absolutely spent. But in a good way. • In closing: Obviously, if you enjoy running on a treadmill, this workout is right up your alley. But, conversely, if you’ve always avoided treadmills, say because you find they don’t, inanimate as they are, engage you enough, I think you might like having an instructor there to give the workout some razzle-dazzle. And, given that this class is only thirty minutes long, it’s easy to squeeze into your day.
