Goal: Analyze Engagement Levels on the Website and Identify Areas for Improvement

Objective: Evaluate user engagement on SayPro’s website, particularly in relation to the matching gift program, donation pages, and other key sections. Use data and insights to identify opportunities for optimization and enhance overall user experience.

Action Plan:

1. Set Up Website Analytics and Tracking Tools:
   • Purpose: Implement tracking tools to collect data on user behavior, engagement, and interactions across the SayPro website.
   • Action Steps:
     • Integrate Google Analytics, Hotjar, or other analytics tools to track visitor behavior on key pages (e.g., donation pages, matching gift program sections).
     • Set up event tracking to monitor specific actions such as clicks on donation buttons, form submissions, and page scroll depth.
     • Ensure tracking of metrics like bounce rate, average session duration, pages per session, and conversion rate to assess user engagement.
2. Define Key Engagement Metrics to Analyze:
   • Purpose: Establish the key performance indicators (KPIs) to evaluate how well users are engaging with the content and programs on the website.
   • Action Steps:
     • User Interaction: Track the number of clicks on key links, such as donation buttons, matching gift program pages, FAQs, and educational content.
     • Form Submissions: Monitor the number of users submitting donation forms, matching gift verification requests, and inquiries about the program.
     • Conversion Rate: Measure the percentage of users who take the desired actions (e.g., donate, complete a matching gift form, or engage with educational content) compared to total visitors.
     • Time on Page: Analyze how long users spend on pages related to matching gifts and donations to determine if they are finding the information they need.
     • Exit Pages: Identify which pages users are exiting from most frequently to understand where they may be dropping off or losing interest.
3. Conduct User Flow and Heatmap Analysis:
   • Purpose: Understand the path users take through the website and which elements they interact with the most.
   • Action Steps:
     • Use heatmaps to track where users are clicking and how far down the page they scroll. Identify if users are engaging with critical content (e.g., calls to action, donation forms, or program descriptions).
     • Set up user flow reports to track the common navigation patterns of users on the website. See which pages are being visited in sequence and where users tend to leave.
     • Identify pages or areas that users bypass or do not interact with, which may indicate issues with content presentation or user experience.
4. Monitor User Feedback and Interaction:
   • Purpose: Collect direct user feedback to gain insights into their experience and areas for improvement.
   • Action Steps:
     • Implement surveys or feedback forms on the website (e.g., after users complete a donation, interact with the matching gift program page, or exit the site). Ask questions about ease of use, clarity of information, and overall satisfaction.
     • Monitor customer service interactions such as emails, chat support, or phone inquiries. Identify if users are experiencing challenges that might indicate website issues (e.g., difficulties in finding matching gift information or completing donations).
     • Evaluate social media comments or online reviews regarding the website, looking for any common themes or concerns related to user experience.
5. Analyze Website Traffic Sources and Demographics:
   • Purpose: Understand where website traffic is coming from and the demographics of the audience engaging with the site.
   • Action Steps:
     • Use traffic source reports from analytics tools to identify which channels (e.g., email campaigns, social media, organic search, paid ads) are driving the most traffic to key pages like donations and matching gift program sections.
     • Review demographic data (e.g., age, location, device type) to understand the type of users engaging with the matching gift program and website, and tailor content accordingly.
     • Track referral sources to see if third-party websites, corporate partners, or influencer campaigns are driving engagement.
6. Identify and Address Areas of High Bounce Rates or Low Engagement:
   • Purpose: Investigate pages or sections with high bounce rates or low engagement to identify potential user experience issues.
   • Action Steps:
     • Analyze pages with high bounce rates to determine if the content is relevant, if the design is distracting, or if users are not finding what they expected.
     • Review pages with low engagement (e.g., low time spent on page or minimal clicks) and identify if the content could be improved, more compelling calls to action could be added, or if the user flow needs to be simplified.
     • Evaluate whether any technical issues (e.g., slow page load times, broken links, or forms not functioning correctly) are contributing to high bounce rates or poor engagement.
7. Conduct A/B Testing on Key Website Elements:
   • Purpose: Test different versions of key website elements to see which ones perform better and drive higher engagement.
   • Action Steps:
     • Set up A/B tests on various elements of the matching gift program page, such as calls to action (e.g., “Donate Now” vs. “Get Involved”), images, page layouts, and donation form designs.
     • Test different messaging or visual styles in emails or on the website to see which resonate more with users (e.g., simple text vs. infographics or videos).
     • Analyze the results of A/B tests and implement the winning variations to optimize user experience and engagement.
8. Assess Mobile User Experience:
   • Purpose: Ensure that mobile users are engaging with the website as effectively as desktop users.
   • Action Steps:
     • Review mobile engagement metrics to determine how well users are interacting with the website on mobile devices (e.g., mobile bounce rate, time on page).
     • Test the mobile user experience by navigating the website on various devices and screen sizes to identify any usability issues, such as text being too small, buttons being difficult to click, or images not loading correctly.
     • Optimize mobile-specific content to make it easier for mobile users to engage with the matching gift program and make donations.
9. Create a List of Actionable Improvements:
   • Purpose: Compile a list of areas for improvement based on the website analytics, user feedback, and performance metrics.
   • Action Steps:
     • Identify content gaps where additional information or clarification may be needed (e.g., more detailed instructions on how to participate in the matching gift program).
     • Suggest design improvements such as simplifying page layouts, adding more prominent calls to action, or adjusting colors and fonts for better readability.
     • Recommend technical fixes such as optimizing page load speed, fixing broken links, or improving the donation form’s usability.
     • Propose strategies for increasing engagement, such as adding interactive features, gamifying the donation experience, or creating urgency through limited-time campaigns.
10. Report Findings and Progress to Management:
    • Purpose: Share insights with the management team to guide future decisions and improvements for the website.
    • Action Steps:
      • Prepare a report summarizing key findings from the website engagement analysis, including performance metrics, user behavior patterns, and areas for improvement.
      • Highlight successful initiatives (e.g., increases in donation form submissions, higher matching gift participation) and provide recommendations for scaling or expanding successful efforts.
      • Offer an action plan with prioritized steps for addressing identified issues, including deadlines for implementation and expected outcomes.

Expected Outcome:

• SayPro will gain a deep understanding of user engagement on the website, specifically in relation to the matching gift program and donation pages.
• Actionable insights will be gathered to identify areas for improvement, enabling the team to optimize website performance, increase engagement, and enhance the user experience.
• Regular reporting on website engagement levels will ensure that management is well-informed about the success and challenges of the program, allowing for data-driven decision-making and continual optimization.

By the end of the quarter, SayPro will have a clear understanding of user engagement levels on the website and will have implemented targeted improvements to enhance participation and engagement with the matching gift program and other fundraising initiatives.
