I’m offering 5 free ecommerce UX/conversion audits in exchange for honest feedback.

I’m a UX designer testing a new audit framework for small ecommerce stores. I’m looking for stores that already have some traffic/sales, so I can study real friction points and improve the process.

Best fit:
Stores having:
- 1,000+ visits/month
- 10+ orders/month
- Clear conversion goal: product purchase, add to cart, checkout completion, etc.

- You’re willing to share basic numbers privately: traffic source, conversion rate if known, AOV, and biggest drop-off point

What I’ll review:
-Homepage clarity
-Product page friction
-Mobile shopping experience
-Add-to-cart and checkout flow
-shipping/returns clarity
-CTA placement
AOV/bundle opportunities
Top 5 fixes I’d prioritize

What you’ll get:
-Annotated screenshots with severity ratings & usability issues
-Top 5 conversion friction points
-Recommended fixes

A short priority list: fix now / fix next / nice to have

In return, I’d just ask for feedback on whether the audit was useful.

If interested, comment or DM with:
Store URL
Platform
Monthly visits
Monthly orders
Main traffic source: organic, paid, social, email, etc.
Mobile vs desktop split, if known
Biggest issue you want help with
I’ll pick 5 stores where there’s enough data to make the audit useful.

I have a pending I-485 application and an approved combo card (EAD/AP). I also have an approved H-1B transfer, but I plan to leave my job to pursue other opportunities.

Is it safe for me to travel domestically while my I-485 is pending?

Curious how other UX designers handle this.

When I’m starting discovery for something like registration, login, checkout, or account setup, I usually go through competitor experiences and map out the full flow -screens, validation states, errors, alternate paths, edge cases, etc.

I normally end up taking screenshots, dropping them into Figma/lucidchart, arranging everything into a flow, and adding notes manually. Then I usually have to go back because I missed a validation state or alternate path.

I find that part of discovery pretty tedious.

How do you all document competitor or current-state flows today? Do you mostly do this manually, or is there a tool/workflow you use?

And do you find this frustrating too, or is it not really a problem for you?

I’ve been following a new sleep schedule this week: in bed by 9:30 PM and aiming to be asleep by 10:30 PM.

Day 1: Slept great and fell asleep quickly.
Day 2: A little harder to fall asleep, but I still slept well and woke up feeling refreshed.
Day 3 (today): I think I only slept about 2 hours. I stayed off my phone, but my mind was racing with work thoughts and random things. I just couldn’t seem to switch off.

For years, my normal routine was going to bed around 2:00 AM and waking up at 6:40 AM for work, so this is a pretty big change for me.

I’m wondering if this is just my body adjusting to the new schedule. Has anyone else experienced this when shifting their bedtime earlier? Any tips for getting through the adjustment period would be appreciated.
