Transitioning for long-term digital success

The Landmark Trust is one of Britain’s leading building conservation charities. It rescues precious pieces of our past and gives them a new life as holiday lets. At the time of writing, The Landmark Trust had 200 historic buildings in its care with over 70,000 guests every year.

 

The Landmark Trust engaged Netcel in a long-term partnership to future-proof their digital estate, enhance booking conversion rates and attract new audiences. Initial deliverables were to migrate and support the existing site, upgrade to the latest version of Episerver, and to develop a mobile-responsive user interface.

 

Once the site was migrated to AWS and the core Episerver solution was upgraded to the latest version, the focus turned to addressing the front-end of the website. We knew that by designing a new responsive front-end experience, The Landmark Trust could greatly improve conversion rates which, in turn, would help to justify future investment in digital technology.

 

Rather than a large-scale redesign, we first recommended quick, smaller scale improvements such as redesigning the header and using Episerver supported solutions to enhance and optimise the customer booking experience.

The improved website saw immediate results in both site performance and conversion rates and the responsive build saw a six-week ROI pay-back:

  • 15% improvement in page speed
  • 83% increase in mobile revenue
  • 20% reduction in bounce rate on desktop and 27% reduction on mobile
  • 9% increase in conversion rate

(Results based on 2016/17 performance vs 2015/16) 

  • 83% increase in mobile revenue
  • 15% improvement in page speed

Moving to another Episerver partner seemed a daunting process, but Netcel made the process smooth and stress free. They continue to challenge us as a strategic digital partner, making sure we spend wisely to maximise our investments.
