Trust & Credibility Audit
The problem, in the customer's voice
What this recipe does
Visitors are interested but hesitate to commit because the site hasn't earned their confidence yet. A heuristic review flags the credibility gaps an expert eye catches quickly, such as thin proof, weak security cues or vague claims, and a competitor review shows the trust signals buyers see elsewhere in the category. Interviews, a survey and on-site polls then locate the specific doubts that stall real customers, and copy testing checks whether reassurance language actually lands. Together they separate the trust problems you can feel from the ones customers act on.
