The introduction
AnSight is a CFD Solutions provider company that provides engineering insights through CFD analysis. Having a distinguished career and work history in the field, their primary focus for digital activities was to increase their presence online.
The initial objective
AnSight wanted to outsource Search Engine Optimization and the maintenance of the website to CrossNibble. So, we did an SEO and Technical audit of the website.
Audit report
During the audit, we found the following issues on the website
- UI and UX – The UI was not intuitive and had a very poor User Experience.
- Poor Visual hierarchy
- Cluttered layout
- Inconsistency in spacing, font sizes, and colors
- On-page SEO – The website was following most of the on-page SEO guidelines.
- Content – While the keyword frequency was optimal, we found certain areas where content and visual elements could be placed to persuade the user to take action on the website.
- Website Structure
- Broken Links
- Wrong internal linking
The critical issue
The previous website was developed using a FREE WordPress theme and more than 60 different plugins were used for different purposes. Also, some custom changes were made by the previous developer, and the documentation of those changes was not available.
Keeping WordPress code, theme code, and plugins updated is important for the website to function properly. This minimizes critical security risks and improves performance.
As the documentation was not available about those changes, upgrading WordPress, theme, and plugins was a risky job as it could break some functionalities of the website.
The use of untrustworthy themes and plugins can also damage the performance and possibly the reputation of the website. If the theme or plugin code is poorly developed, hackers can inject malware into the website and can also steal the data of your website users.
The CrossNibble team shared all these facts with AnSight and recommended revamping the website which would take care of all the above factors.

We agreed to revamp the website with the following objectives
- Minimum plugins
