We went through three sets of user testing, improving upon the last each time. By the end, I definitely learned so much from our users. It is so important to user test to see how the average person will react and engage your website.
Here is the writeup from each user testing. They are notes on what the users would click on, how they would react to certain situations from the script and their feedback on any more improvements for the redesign.
After putting everything into UXPin and Invision, we created clickable prototypes to be able to user test.
Here are screen grabbed, click through videos of how my app "Freelancr" would work. I have also embedded the app prototype here, so you can click through it & follow along with the tasks.
