Project Highlights
Improved brand understanding
One of the insights gathered from user testing centered around visitors understanding of what The Dungeon is. It's a unique proposition and can be difficult to convey online.
Taking these insights, we redesigned the homepage focusing on great video content, strong brand messaging and simplifying the call-to-actions. We also tested various combinations of auto-playing the video on mobiles and desktops to achieve the best results.
The results
We set up experiments on Dungeons all around the world, resulting in impressive incremental revenue gains on every location.
Improved Value Proposition
To further help users understand the format of the attraction, we designed and built an Interactive walk-through page, showing how visitors flow through the attraction.
Product Page Optimisation
We've developed and tested numerous features to help increase conversion rate - including a dynamic social proof widget and product up-sell widget.
Opening Times Improvements
We completely redesigned the Opening Times interface to make it easier for users to navigate. We also integrated a feed from a third party API, meaning the Dungeon teams only need to update their opening times in one place, and it'll feed through to the website.
“I have worked with the team from Semantic for more than 3 years for various brands. Very open-minded, constantly evolving attitude to improve our digital performance. A very hands-on mentality, easy to reach out to.”
