However, the goal was not to make something prettier or different or trendy (which would result in a short-term hype), but instead to focus on tiny little details. After the last relaunch, significant number of pages were published <i>ad hoc<\/i> and those needed a special attention. <\/p>\n<p>The feedback from the client and visitors was of a great help. Not the <q>\u201cI wish you had\u2026\u201d<\/q> kind of complaints, but rather relevant comments, for instance <q>\u201cI didn\u2019t understand how X service works or how service Y can help me.\u201d<\/q>. Mario Fran\u010de\u0161evi\u0107, the Seekandhit CEO created very useful brief, based \u2014 among other things \u2014 on visitors\u2019 behavior tracked by Google Analytics.<\/p>\n<p>The cornerstone for this iteration were detailed screenshots of actual adverts and illustrations for the most prominent advertising features. That was especially important on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seekandhit.com\/en\/services\/\">Services Overview page<\/a>, where some visitors had difficulties understanding differences between various advertising platforms.<\/p>\n<div class=\"alignleft-pulllarge\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.seekandhit.com\/en\/services\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.maratz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/seekandhit-maratz.com-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Old and New Services page\" width=\"660\" height=\"660\" class=\"alignleft size-full\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Another roadblock for visitors was the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seekandhit.com\/en\/quote\/\">Project Questionnaire<\/a>, which had too many specific questions that were not really required for the initial contact.
