This week, I welcome back Ezra Firestone to discuss the 5 questions all eCommerce owners need to consider before starting a site redesign. We debate the reasons behind why an eCommerce store owner would start a site redesign and where to begin. We also get into the different tools that you can use to determine what needs to be changed on your site vs what should stay the same.

On this episode, Ezra and I draw on our past and current experiences with site redesigns to give time- and money-saving advice to help your redesign go as smoothly as possible. You do not want to miss this episode’s valuable advice that can save you thousands.
