A WORDPRESS
MAKEOVER

Transforming Soul of Africa Travel’s 10-year old website into a modern and user-friendly space.

Reviving Soul of Africa Travel's online presence

Richelle, founder of Soul of Africa Travel, reached out in March 2023 for a WordPress website redesign. Her business celebrated its 10th year anniversary in 2023 and she wanted to honor this remarkable milestone by revamping her brand and website.

Built in 2013, she felt embarrassed to send people to her outdated website. Notably – it didn’t work on smartphones. The user experience was confusing and not doing her brand any favors.

Here’s a snapshot of what her old website looked like:

Goals for the website redesign

  • Communicate Soul of Africa’s value through high-quality design and content.
  • Improve the user experience.
  • Make it easy for a visitor to take action.
  • Create an online space that Richelle is excited to share.

Writing simple and impactful website copy for all the pages of her website.

Improving the brand’s credibility by showcasing client testimonials on key website pages.
