My Projects

Website Redesign

Ajinomoto Foods Europe SID

"How we increased SEO traffic by 80%"

Our company's website had not received any updates or maintenance for over two years. I led the call for tender process to find a qualified agency capable of managing a full transition—from the outdated CMS Drupal to CMS WordPress. This included a complete redesign of the web marketing approach, with a strong focus on user experience, measurable performance, and robust SEO optimization.

I identified and evaluated five potential web agencies, led pricing negotiations, and organized a final presentation to select the most suitable partner.

During the Project

I created a detailed roadmap covering content production, UI/UX design, testing, and WordPress CMS integration. I collaborated closely with the project manager and artistic director, wrote content, produced videos, and managed all materials for launch. Regular stakeholder meetings ensured alignment and on-time delivery.

After the Project

Post-launch, I implemented a content maintenance and optimization plan with monthly and semi-annual tasks, ensuring the website stayed fresh, relevant, and SEO-friendly.

What people
say about me

"

Lan is a very organized person who can lead projects easily: gathering input data, sharing with and convincing the members, making the steps and following the realization. Reporting KPI transparently is very appreciated. The management of subcontractors is also good, whether digital support designers or media artists. She also has extensive knowledge about digital communication, like the good practices, the process to build websites, the metrics, and the structuration of animation. She can produce attractive visuals with no external help when necessary.

Yves Dusquenoy General Manager · Ajinomoto Foods Europe

Lan is a valuable ally in our communication team at Imperial Tobacco Limited France. Together, we were able to implement new initiatives, such as newsletter, intranet, and website. She supported me on all the events that punctuate the year, including some abroad. Lan is focused on innovation and never short of ideas. Her refreshing, creative vision and technical expertise (Social Media, Adobe Suite, Microsoft 365, Figma, Filmora) contribute to maintaining an agile and human communication strategy.
