The why

The why

Atlassian's platform pages — the storefronts for Jira, Confluence, and Github.. — had unclear messaging, inconsistent navigation, and an 80% bounce rate. With significant monthly visitor volume, this created a significant revenue gap.

  • High bounce rate (80%) on critical landing pages.

  • Inconsistent navigation across product pages.

  • Unclear value proposition for key products.

  • Missed conversion opportunities.

Project Constraints

Project Constraints

The platform redesign was a high-visibility project but tightly scoped. We had to align multiple enterprise stakeholders while keeping delivery within a 13-week window. That meant balancing research depth with execution speed, reusing design system components where possible, and coordinating closely across Product, Engineering, and Marketing.

Experiment only

Experiment only—couldn't invest in a full 0→1 product, but validated insights.

Design system patterns

Reused for speed, added custom components where needed.

Design Process

  • Audience: New visitors and evaluators from paid + organic.

  • KPIs: Bounce, time on page, demo/CTA conversion, qualified pipeline.

  • Constraints: Shared components, brand guardrails, short runway.

What we learned

What we learned

Key Findings (Pain Points)


  • Unclear Value → 60% Drop-off Before Pricing
    Prospects couldn’t see how platform solved their problems or what it cost, so they abandoned the page before even exploring pricing tiers.

  • Undefined Audience → 30% Disengagement
    Visitors were unsure if platform was for admins, champions, or executives—leading each group to bounce when they didn’t see role-specific messaging.

  • Hidden CTAs → 70% Scrolling Without Converting
    With primary CTAs buried below the fold and styled like links, most users scrolled endlessly without ever scheduling a demo.

Lessons learned from experiment to improve user engagement

Target Audience

30% of participants were existing, logged-in users—outside our intended cohort—diluting the results.

Challenge Identified

Future tests will target only "new-to-new" users to ensure relevance and clear impact.

Experiment Visibility

Our demo sat below the fold, so only 37% of users ever saw it—limiting its impact.

Challenge Identified

Position interactive elements above the fold to ensure they reach and engage the majority of visitors.

Data Dilution

Exposure fired on page load—counting users who never engaged and skewing our metrics.

Challenge Identified

Trigger exposure only after a user interacts with the demo to capture true engagement.

Final Design

Overview:

The Platform Webpage Redesign for Atlassian.com was a data-driven, user-centered redesign focused on improving engagement, reducing bounce rates, and driving conversions for enterprise customers. By simplifying navigation, clarifying the platform's value, and refining calls to action, I significantly enhanced the user experience.

From the research, three themes stood out: users weren’t sure what the platform offered, CTAs were buried, and there weren’t enough trust signals. Here’s how I turned those insights into design changes that moved metrics.
