First, although I am creative and know how to navigate a computer, I am very intimidated and nervous about site completion. I need to test and launch before the end of the month. I don't know what part of my needs you can resolve, so be patient with me and forgive my ignorance.

My name is Kat Rhea; my shop is Cheeky Divas Fashion, www.cheekydivasfashion.com. I am using a Shopify website and CCwholesale as my drop shipper. Shop and Shopify Payments and have already entered my company information. I had planned to launch my store this week. However, while testing the cart and checking out, it failed, and I got a message, which I have attached. So, I want to hire someone to  complete the following:

Check Navigation
Confirm or correct my checkout process
Add two donation buttons to checkout. (Sprout) & (Samaritan's purse)
Make sure the links to Facebook and Instagram are connected to my business page, not personal, and set up my store for payments, etc., on both.

Hi @katrhea Honestly i have contacted and worked with a few clients but i haven't ever received a reply as good as yours. You are confident of what you know like( creative and know how to navigate a computer) but at the same time nervous of the possibilities. 

Since you are so open and clear i feel i should be the same. Honestly, i dont know if i am gonna work for you or not but i already feel good talking to you. So my name is Shadab Ali and i am a web developer. I have been using shopify for a year now but since i am a developer i have worked mostly with code and i like doing my research. I havent integrated payments or stuffs like that but i would definitely be looking out for this opportunity as i believe there's a first time for everything. I will surely understand if you decide not to work together since you are looking to launch soon.

In case you wanna move forward and by any chance want to collaborate please reach out via mail for a convenient conversation. I will have some questions regarding your requirements. Looking forward to this.

Best Regards
Shadab Ali

RE: Shadab_dev
Thank you for your quick response. Would you be interested in starting with a review of my Navigation? I am looking to provide a user-friendly, easy-to-navigate website. I want to test navigation to identify issues and gather feedback to resolve them. You could be helpful with this.
Navigation Considerations: Testing & Evaluation
Simplicity and Clarity: Ensure the navigation is easy to understand.
SEO Optimization: Ensure the navigation is optimized for search engines. Please check that our descriptive labels are clear and easily accessible.
Consistency: The navigation should be consistent across all pages to ensure all users feel more comfortable and have an enjoyable experience
Accessibility: Ensure the navigation is accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. We should provide keyboard navigation options and clear, concise labels.
Mobile Responsiveness: The navigation should work seamlessly on all devices, including smartphones and tablets. Is our website's design adaptive and responsive, and does it adapt to different screen sizes?

Login, Cart and Checkout: Do they work? Are they straightforward to understand and use? Should we add labels to identify the icons quickly?

Best Regards,
Kat

Hi @katrhea So i tried reviewing it. Except the seo thing i guess almost everything is good. Saying this as i am not good with seo or stuffs but i can tell the naming conventions are ok.

Your navigation is accessible from the keyboard. I tried using a narrator as well and i guess the terms are pretty explanatory. So navigating menu seems good for anyone. 

The navigation is responsive to tablets and smartphones and mid screen sizes and to be honest it looks clean. 

The navigation is consistent and does not break or flaw on any page.

Checkout seems ok to me. The side cart works pretty smoothly and updates asnychronously well. There is an issue with your login icon in the header and login link in cart drawer when cart is empty. I dont think you need to add labels since people are pretty much familiar with it now and it looks cleaner now. And also screen reader can read the link for people with disabilities and is is quite easy to understand that i am on a login link.

One more thing your site is good and very clean pleasing to the eye i believe thats the correct word but i will ask you to add more texts and something to your popup newsletter. I mean its clean now but in my opinion its way too simple. Add may be background image or something, an attractive texts, etc.

I guess pretty much all i had to say when it comes to navigation part. 

Thanks

There are not many things that would need change i believe as i already told you your site is clean and i actually like it. 

Some of the stuffs i would recommend would be :

1. Fixing the login icon in header and link in your side cart drawer. 

2. For your collection pages you can move the sold out products towards the very bottom and keep available products at top. This way users will have the curiosity to scroll more and view more products which might increase the chance of conversion.

3. Inside the product page i see you have set reviews like that. I would prefer making a custom section in which you can add data yourself and i will try displaying those reviews as sliding from left to right.
4. In your product page and other pages i see there are some important points which i believe should be more highlighted than they are now. May be they must have bigger, bold texts,etc things like that. 

5. The products which are on sale you can show the user the amount or percentage they save on that product as a strategy. 


These are some that i would recommend after a slight view of your store. I believe on working and thorough check there could be more changes that can be applied but not neccessarily since honestly overall i believe your site looks good.

Thanks
