Who this is for

Signs you need a Shopify CRO audit

  1. Traffic

    Sessions up, sales flat

    Ad spend keeps climbing and traffic follows, but revenue stays where it was six months ago.

  2. Cart

    Carts filled, never paid

    People add to cart and disappear before payment, and nobody on the team knows exactly where.

  3. Mobile

    Mobile converts half as well

    Most of your sessions come from phones, but desktop still carries the conversion rate.

  4. Product

    Product pages don't sell

    Shoppers reach the PDP, scroll once, and leave without ever hitting the add-to-cart button.

  5. Testing

    Guesswork runs the roadmap

    Changes ship because someone liked them, not because data said they were worth trying.

  6. Trust

    New visitors hesitate

    Returning customers buy without hesitation, but first-time visitors stall before the store has earned their trust.

What’s included

What your free CRO audit actually covers

Every audit is run by hand against your live store and your own numbers, not a template checklist. Slow load is often part of the leak, so see our speed optimization service .

  1. Funnel drop-off analysis

    Session-to-cart, cart-to-checkout and checkout-to-paid measured so the leak has a location, not a guess.

  2. Homepage & landing review

    First-screen clarity, offer hierarchy and navigation judged the way a first-time visitor sees them.

  3. Product page teardown

    Imagery, variants, pricing, delivery messaging and add-to-cart placement reviewed line by line.

  4. Prioritised test roadmap

    A ranked list of fixes and tests, scored by expected lift against effort, yours to keep either way.

  5. Collection & search paths

    Filtering, sorting and merchandising checked against how shoppers actually hunt through your catalog.

  6. Cart & checkout friction

    Every field, step and surprise cost mapped between the cart drawer and the payment confirmation.

  7. Mobile experience check

    Tap targets, sticky elements and thumb reach reviewed on a real mid-range phone, not a resized desktop.

  8. Trust & social proof

    Reviews, guarantees, returns and policy visibility assessed where hesitation actually shows up.

  9. Speed impact on conversion

    Core Web Vitals read against your conversion data, so load time is priced in revenue terms.

  10. Analytics & tracking sanity

    We confirm your events fire correctly first, because a decision made on broken data costs more than no data at all.

Every step of the journey

We audit every page a buyer passes through

  • No Access To Code Needed
  • Nothing Changed Live
  • Findings Are Yours

A homepage review on its own tells you very little. We follow the full path from entry through collection, product, cart and checkout, because the leak is usually one step further down than most teams expect.

The deliverable

What actually lands in your inbox

Not a PDF scorecard and not a slide deck. A working document your team can open on Monday and start acting on.

  1. Funnel snapshot

    Your session-to-cart, cart-to-checkout and checkout-to-paid rates side by side with store benchmarks, so you can see which step is actually underperforming.

  2. Annotated screenshots

    Marked-up captures of every template we reviewed, with the friction marked and explained in one sentence each, written so your designer or developer can act on it directly.

  3. Ranked fix list

    Every finding scored on expected lift against build effort, so the roadmap orders itself and quick wins are flagged separately.

  4. Revenue impact estimate

    What each leak plausibly costs per month at your current traffic, so a fix can be argued in money rather than opinion.

  5. Tracking gap report

    The events that aren't firing, firing twice, or firing on the wrong trigger, which is why most store dashboards report numbers you can't rely on.

  6. 30-Minute Walkthrough

    A call with the team that ran the audit to walk through every finding and answer your questions. Recording included.

Why Aqsa

Why brands trust our conversion rate audit

Plenty of agencies give away an audit to open a sales call. Here’s what makes this one worth your inbox.

  1. Human

    Reviewed by hand

    We walk your store manually on real devices, template by template. No crawler, no automated scorecard, no recycled report.

  2. Evidence

    Backed by your data

    Every finding is tied to your own funnel numbers, so you can see what it costs before deciding what to fix.

  3. No strings

    Yours to keep

    The roadmap is written so your in-house team can act on it alone. If you never reply again, it still works.

How we work

Our Free CRO Audit Process

Six steps from request to written roadmap, finished inside a week, with nothing installed on your store and nothing changed without your say-so.

STEP 01

You request the audit

Send your store URL and a short note on where you think you're losing sales. That's all we need to begin.

Day 1
01
02
STEP 02

Data and tracking check

We review your analytics access, confirm key events fire correctly, and set the baseline every finding is measured against.

Day 1–2
STEP 03

Manual store walkthrough

We shop your store on desktop and mobile exactly as a first-time buyer would, recording every point of hesitation along the way.

Day 2–3
03
04
STEP 04

Funnel and friction analysis

Drop-off is mapped step by step, then matched to what we saw on the walkthrough so cause and number line up.

Day 3–4
STEP 05

Prioritised recommendations

Findings are ranked by expected lift against effort, with the highest-value fixes at the top and quick wins flagged.

Day 4–5

06
STEP 06

Walkthrough call

We walk you through the findings on a 30-minute call and answer your questions. You decide what happens next.

Day 5

After the audit

Three ways brands use the findings

The audit ends with a roadmap. What happens next is entirely your decision, and all three routes are common.

  1. Route a

    Your team executes

    You hand the roadmap to your in-house developer or existing agency and ship it yourself. It's written to be actionable without us.

  2. Route b

    We implement it

    You pick the fixes worth paying for and we scope them as a fixed-price sprint. No retainer, no minimum commitment.

  3. Route c

    We partner ongoing

    Continuous testing and iteration month over month, with a shared dashboard and a fixed monthly fee.

Frequently asked questions.

Is the CRO audit really free?

Yes. There's no fee, no card and no obligation to work with us afterwards. We offer the audit free because roughly a third of the stores we review come back to us later, and the rest still leave with something useful.

What do I get at the end?

A written document with your funnel numbers, the friction we found on each template, and a ranked list of fixes and tests scored by expected lift against effort. Plus a 30-minute call to walk through it if you want one.

What access do you need from me?

Your store URL is enough to start. Read-only analytics access makes the findings far more specific, since we can tie each observation to real drop-off instead of describing it in general terms.

Will you change anything on my store?

No. The audit is observation only. Nothing is installed, edited or published. Any change happens later, on a separate engagement, and only with your written approval.

How long does it take?

Five working days for a typical store. Large catalogs, multiple markets or heavily customised themes can take a little longer, and we'll tell you the timeline when we confirm your request.

Do I have to hire you afterwards?

No. The roadmap is written so your own team or another agency can execute it without us. If you would like us to implement it, we quote a fixed scope separately.

What does implementation cost after the audit?

Most sprints land between $6,500 and $18,000 depending on how many templates change and how customised your theme is. You get a fixed scope and a fixed number in writing before anything starts.

Can I upgrade from the free audit later?

Yes, and the free audit is credited against a deep dive if you upgrade within 30 days. Nothing is repeated, since we pick up from the findings you already have.

Does this work for stores with low traffic?

Under roughly 5,000 monthly sessions there isn't enough data for reliable testing, so we focus on qualitative fixes and best-practice gaps instead. We'll say plainly which findings are evidence-backed and which are judgement.

Got a project in mind?
