DIGITAL AUDIT

For many of us, the phrase “digital audit” may be strange. All of our interactions and visibility in the digital channel are being audited. A digital audit is a thorough, personalised evaluation of your web and mobile experience, with insights compiled in a report intended to aid your company in understanding how to successfully use digital channels to fulfil strategic goals.

Instead of merely a general WEBSITE examination, a professional digital audit offers a deeper and more tailored study. The should-haves and could-haves must also be included for better business advice and support.
