Case Study: Targa — Speed, Clarity, Conversion

Targa needed a lean, fast site to showcase events and guide entrants and fans with zero fuss. My brief: make it load fast, be easy to update, and reduce support questions.

What I delivered

  • Clear information architecture for events, routes, regulations, and news
  • Lightweight components with accessible markup and strong SEO metadata
  • Simple content model so non‑technical admins can publish quickly
  • Performance budget and CI checks to keep pages lean

Outcomes

  • Snappy loads on desktop and mobile (sub‑second in lab conditions)
  • Cleaner navigation path to key actions: register, read regs, view schedule
  • Fewer “where do I…?” emails to the team after launch

Want the full walkthrough? Ask for the Targa deck and I’ll demo the IA and performance approach.
