Requirements

Made For Mums sought to enhance its platform in order to better serve parents and families. The main requirements were:

•A content-rich site that handles many categories : pregnancy, babies, toddlers, family life, health & safety, reviews, etc.
•Strong product review and “best buys” sections with clear, trustworthy criteria.
•Ease of navigation so users (parents, caregivers) can quickly find relevant advice, product recommendations, reviews, comparisons.
•A design that works well on mobile and desktop, with fast load times and readable, engaging content.
•A CMS system capable of managing frequent content updates — new reviews, news, articles, parenting tips, family recipes, etc.
•SEO focus to capture organic search traffic for parenting questions, product review searches, baby-related health & safety guides.
•Ad and partner content integration without harming user trust or site performance.
•Tools or infrastructure to support user engagement : e.g. competitions, user reviews, sharing features, possibly user accounts.

Challenges

In implementing this, several challenges were identified:

•Large volume of diverse content across many topics/categories, requiring well-structured taxonomy, tagging, and content organization.
•Maintaining credibility in product reviews :consistency in how reviews are presented, ensuring transparency.
•Balancing monetization (ads, partner content) with user experience and trust.
•Performance under load, especially as heavy media (images, reviews, best buys galleries) can slow down pages.
•Responsive design across many device types; ensuring readability, navigation, images scale well, etc.
•Ensuring that editorial workflows are smooth :for authors, reviewers, editors to publish, update, and maintain content effectively.
•Integration of external :partner content, affiliate links, etc. while ensuring the site remains compliant, fast, secure.

Solutions We Provided

To meet the requirements and address the challenges, the following solutions were proposed and implemented:

•Developed a robust content management system (CMS) that supports multiple content types : reviews, articles, advice posts, best buys guides, news, recipes, etc.

•Defined a clear taxonomy and content tagging system for topics/categories such as pregnancy, baby, toddler, health & safety, feeding, sleep, parenting, etc.to help with navigation, internal search, filtering, and recommendation.

•Built a review module with consistent layout, scoring / criteria display, author attribution and date, pros & cons sections, comparison tables, and media (images) to strengthen trustworthiness.

•Designed site navigation and UI/UX to make it easy for users to find relevant content : clear menu structure, prominent categories, search functionality, related articles links, “best buys” highlights.

•Optimized for mobile-first performance : responsive design, image optimization & lazy loading, caching of assets, minimized render-blocking scripts.

•Implemented SEO best practices : structured data (especially for reviews), clean and descriptive URLs, meta tags, canonical tags, internal linking, fresh content updating, and schema markup where appropriate.

•Integrated partner : affiliate content and advertisements in a way that is clearly labelled and does not interrupt readability or trust, placing ads suitably so as not to degrade user experience.

•Monitoring and performance measurement : set up analytics, page speed monitoring, user behavior tracking to spot bottlenecks, dropped sessions, etc.

•Editorial workflow support : roles and permissions for content creators, review & approval workflows, scheduling of posts, versioning or revision history.

•Ensured compliance (privacy, cookies, ad disclosures), accessibility, and legal/regulatory standards particularly because health, safety, children’s content present extra scrutiny.
