How SXO Helps Small Businesses
Search Experience Optimization (SXO) improves both website visibility and user experience. By combining SEO with smooth UX, it ensures visitors have a positive time on your site, increasing the chances they’ll stay and make a purchase. SXO also helps boost your brand reputation, stand out in search results, and gather data to refine marketing efforts and adapt to search engine changes.
Some ways to improve SXO are:
- Improve site loading speed: People don’t like waiting. Fast loading speeds mean that customers are less likely to bounce and more likely to buy.
- Optimize for mobile: Many people carry out search on their phones. Having a website that’s hard to navigate on mobile, can deter users and can mean that you’re losing out on a lot of potential customers.
- Use social proof: Google reviews and client testimonials are all great for encouraging confidence in your brand among your potential customers.

How CRO Helps Small Businesses
Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) is vital for SMEs as it boosts the number of visitors who take desired actions, like making a purchase or signing up for a newsletter. CRO focuses on improving how well your site converts visitors into customers, increasing sales or leads.
CRO is crucial for two reasons: first, it can double sales without needing more traffic by simply increasing the conversion rate. Second, it maximizes the return on ad spend by converting more of your existing traffic, making your marketing efforts more cost-effective.
- Segment your audience: Divide your audience into groups to tailor messages to their specific needs and stages in the sales funnel. This boosts relevance and engagement.
- Optimize CTA and landing pages: Use clear, engaging CTAs, ensure quick page loading, and design straightforward forms to boost conversions.
- Eliminate Obstacles: Remove barriers by simplifying forms, providing various payment methods, and addressing any potential concerns.

3. Increased Customer Engagement: We added interactive elements and a live chat feature to a small restaurant’s website. This led to a higher engagement rate and more reservations.
4. Reduced Cart Abandonment: For an e-commerce store, we streamlined the checkout process and introduced a one-click purchase option. Cart abandonment rates dropped significantly, and sales increased.
5. Enhanced User Experience: We worked with a local gym to optimize their website with easy navigation and a clear value proposition. Membership sign-ups saw a substantial rise.
How ASO Helps Small Businesses
ASO involves enhancing your app’s visibility on app stores using relevant keywords, visuals, and localized descriptions. This ensures that your app is presented to the right audience and that it appears in search results when users look for specific functionalities. Without ASO, your app might get lost among countless others, making it difficult for potential users to find it. Optimizing ASO ensures that it’s more likely to be discovered by users, leading to more organic downloads and reducing user acquisition costs.
Here are some ways to improve ASO:
- Conduct Extensive Keyword Research: Identify high-volume, low-competition keywords and integrate them into your app’s title, description, and metadata to enhance visibility in app store searches.
- Create a Catchy Title and Icon: Choose a memorable and clear title with key terms while designing a distinctive icon that reflects your app’s purpose to attract users’ attention and improve recall.
- Encourage Reviews and Localize Your App: Prompt users to leave reviews and ratings to boost your app’s credibility and search ranking, and localize your app to reach a broader audience by adapting it to different languages and cultures.
Some Of Our Experience With ASO:
1. Increased Visibility: For a local real-estate company, we optimized their app store listing with relevant keywords, leading to a 19% increase in visibility and downloads.
2. Higher Conversion Rates: We enhanced an e-commerce app’s store page with attractive screenshots and clear descriptions. This led to a 30% increase in download rates.
3. Improved Ratings and Reviews: After implementing a prompt for a fitness app asking satisfied users for reviews, their app store rating improved significantly, leading to more downloads.
4. Cost-Effective User Acquisition: For a startup’s budgeting app, we performed ASO, resulting in higher organic downloads and reducing the need for expensive paid promotions.
5. Localized Success: A language learning app we worked with became popular in Chinese speaking markets after we localized their app store listing.
