UX Audit & Conversion Optimization
UX audit and conversion optimization services, find where users drop off, why, and the prioritized fixes worth building. Recorded walkthrough in two weeks.
A HandsOnTech UX audit reviews your analytics, session recordings and key flows to find where users drop off and why, delivered in two weeks as a recorded walkthrough plus a fix list ranked by conversion impact versus effort.
You don't need a redesign; you need to know which five screens are bleeding conversions. An audit finds them with evidence (analytics, recordings, heuristics and accessibility checks) and ranks the fixes so engineering time goes where revenue is.
Find the five screens bleeding conversions
You probably don’t need a redesign, you need to know exactly where users drop off and why. A UX audit answers that with evidence: funnel analysis of your analytics, session-recording review to watch real abandonment happen, heuristic evaluation of the critical flows, and an accessibility pass that often explains “mysterious” mobile drop-off. In two weeks you get a recorded walkthrough and a fix list ranked by conversion impact against engineering effort, so the next sprint works on the checkout step where 40% abandon, not on the homepage hero everyone has opinions about.
Surgical CRO beats speculative redesign
Conversion optimization preserves what already works and fixes what measurably doesn’t: the form that asks for eleven fields when four would qualify the lead, the CTA buried below the fold on mobile, the error message that dead-ends instead of helping. These fixes ship in days, not quarters, and their impact shows up in the same analytics that found them. When the audit reveals the foundation itself is the problem (information architecture that fights how buyers think) we’ll say so and scope the bigger fix honestly. But most products are five fixes away from a meaningfully better number.
Why most redesigns fail
Opinion-driven UI costs twice, once for the wrong design, again to fix what users refuse to adopt.
Stakeholder opinions win
Boardroom taste replaces user evidence. Launch day looks polished; week two shows drop-off nobody predicted.
Handoff breaks the intent
Figma files arrive without edge cases, states or accessibility notes. Engineering improvises, and your brand pays for it.
No baseline metric
Without a number to move (signups, completion, time-to-task) you cannot tell if the redesign worked.
What we design and deliver
Research-backed UX that engineers can build without guesswork.
User research & journeys
Interviews, session review and journey maps tied to the one metric this release must move.

Design systems
Tokens, components and documentation so every screen stays consistent after launch.
Usability & WCAG 2.2 AA
Accessibility and task testing baked in, not a checklist bolted on at the end.

What you can hold us to
Not adjectives, terms. Each of these is written into the engagement before you sign.
Fixed price, in writing, before work starts
You receive a written scope with milestones, deliverables and a delivery date within 48 hours of the free audit. No hourly creep, and no change order three weeks before launch.

A 30-day bug warranty, in the contract
Bugs found in the first month after go-live are fixed free. It is a contractual term rather than a sales promise, and it is the reason we would rather ship correctly than ship early.

Common questions
What does a UX audit include?
Funnel analysis of your analytics, session-recording review, heuristic evaluation of key flows, an accessibility pass and a competitive teardown, synthesized into a recorded walkthrough and a prioritized fix list with expected impact. Two weeks, fixed price, yours to act on with any team.
How is conversion optimization different from a redesign?
CRO is surgical: fix the checkout step where 40% abandon, rewrite the form that asks too much, unbury the CTA. It preserves what already works, often the fastest revenue lift available. A redesign is warranted when the foundation itself fails; the audit tells you which case you are in.
What is UX Audit & Conversion Optimization?
UX Audit & Conversion Optimization is a scoped, fixed-price engagement from HandsOnTech, a U.S. design, development and growth studio headquartered in Sacramento, California. We map URL architecture, internal links and schema before build, tie UI/UX design work to one business metric you name, and deliver in two-week sprints with staging demos on U.S. business hours.
How much does UX audit & conversion optimization cost?
A UX audit runs $4k–$8k, a site or product redesign $12k–$35k, and a full design system $25k–$60k. Every engagement is fixed-price after a free review, and the deliverables (flows, prototypes, tested screens, documented components) are listed in the scope before you sign.
How long does UX audit & conversion optimization take?
UX audits deliver in 1–2 weeks, redesigns in 3–6 weeks, and design systems in 6–10 weeks. Research and low-fidelity flows come before visual polish, so the expensive decisions get tested while they are still cheap to change.
Do you work with businesses across the United States?
Yes. We are headquartered at 2108 N ST STE N, Sacramento, CA 95816 and serve clients in all 50 states, remote-first, with daily overlap on Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific time. Contracts and IP assignment run through a U.S. entity, and on-site working sessions in major metros are available by arrangement.
What platform or stack do you build on?
Figma for design, prototyping and handoff, with documented tokens, states and specs your engineers can build from without guessing. Usability testing runs with real users, and accessibility is designed to WCAG 2.2 AA rather than audited after launch.
How is this different from an agency or an offshore team?
One team covers design, development and growth, so there is no handoff tax and nobody to blame. You talk to the designer and engineer doing the work instead of an account manager relaying messages. And it is contractual, not a pitch: fixed price, U.S. hours, a 30-day bug warranty and full ownership transfer on final payment.
