Client Background
TeaJTea is a fast-growing online tea retailer in the United States, co-founded by John and Thuy. Their mission is to deliver premium, ethically sourced teas to health-conscious consumers. Despite strong branding and high-quality products, their Shopify store faced severe performance bottlenecks:
- 15-second page load times across devices.
- Skyrocketing bounce rates due to poor user experience.
- Declining conversions and revenue, despite consistent traffic.
TeaJTea approached Minovex with one goal: revive sales by transforming their website into a fast, optimized, and conversion-driven e-commerce experience.
The Challenges
TeaJTea’s existing setup presented multiple roadblocks:
- Performance Issues: Slow speed (15s load times) was driving users away. Research shows that 53% of mobile visitors abandon a site taking longer than 3s to load (Google, 2024).
- SEO Gaps: Missing 150+ high-intent keywords left TeaJTea invisible in key search results.
- CRO Weaknesses: Poor product discovery, cluttered layouts, and unoptimized CTAs hurt conversions.
- Technical Errors: Google Search Console flagged errors, warnings, and notices impacting indexation.
Without urgent intervention, TeaJTea risked losing significant market share to competitors.
