Making a large catalog easier to shop.

Vape Vend needed a storefront that could handle many categories without making customers work too hard. The main job was to make product discovery faster and make important buying details easier to understand.

I focused on navigation structure, collection clarity, product-card hierarchy, and lighter front-end implementation so the store could feel quicker on mobile.

What changed

  • Clearer category paths for vape devices, e-liquids, pods, and accessories.
  • Homepage sections rebuilt around high-intent shopping decisions.
  • Technical SEO cleanup for metadata, headings, internal linking, and schema.
  • Reduced visual clutter so the product catalog feels easier to scan.

Designed for repeat shoppers.

The design direction keeps the store practical and direct: familiar commerce patterns, cleaner product discovery, and less friction between search intent and checkout.
