Below the cut is our extensive FAQ! If you have a question, check here first!

How long has PawBorough been in development?

PawBorough has been in development since the summer of 2021.

When will PawBorough be playable?

PawBorough will enter closed Beta for Kickstarter backers in late 2024. Open Beta will proceed to allow entry of non-backer users afterwards. Our current timeline projects an extended period of open Beta for new users to join in late 2024 or early 2025, depending on how many features need tweaking and to what extent. We currently estimate full launch in 2025.

Will PawBorough be free to play? Yes. PawBorough will have premium features, but will not be “pay to play.”

Where do I download PawBorough?

PawBorough is a browser game with no need for download. However, we are working on an application for mobile devices which will be available to download in the future. There is not currently a timeline for this development.

Will PawBorough be mobile friendly?

Yes. We are dedicated to mobile usability. Our development of an application is intended to enhance the mobile experience.

Will you have a suggestions page?

Once we have the game refined and populated, we will be opening a forum for suggestions to improve the user experience.

Is PawBorough accepting artist applications?

Currently PawBorough is accepting artist applications. If you would like to work as a visual artist on The PawBorough Team, please send your resume and portfolio to [email protected].

Is PawBorough accepting developer applications?

PawBorough is not in need of developers at this time.

Can I volunteer for PawBorough work?

For the majority of work, we do not accept volunteer applications. We periodically open volunteer applications for early feature testing. For notifications on when these applications open, keep up with our Kickstarter updates!

What timezone will PawBorough be in?

PawBorough will function in EST/ET!

How can I reach out directly to the team?

Please email us at [email protected]. All other methods to contact us may not reach us.

Will you keep the official Discord open after the full launch of PawBorough?

No. After PawBorough launches officially, we will be shutting down our Discord. It is not in our best interest to rely on third party software for communication with our community. Already, this is an issue we take responsibility for perpetuating. We want to ensure all information is sourced to and on our website in a single space. Players are welcome to create their own, unofficial spaces however!

How can I support the development of PawBorough right now?

We take donations from our PayPal. All donations will go towards our continued development. You can also support us by spreading the word! Tell your friends about our project, keep informed on our updates, and join the site when we’re live!

Will you have dark mode?

Yes.

Will there be more breeds/patterns?

PawBorough will continue to add more content over the span of its lifetime. We have currently committed to 21 breeds in total, but new patterns may be added in perpetuity as the game ages.

Can cats die? Is there a way to remove them from the game?

Cats do not die from play. The only way to remove a cat from the game is to voluntarily retire the cat.

What are mystic and domestic breeds?

PawBorough features seven Boroughs that a player may join. A Borough is a culturally unique location in the world of the game. Each Borough has at least two breeds of origin: a domestic breed and a mystic breed. These breeds come in “pairs.” For every domestic cat, there is a mystical, magical counterpart. We call these pairs an “origin set” or “origin pair.” In lore, this is explained as normal cat breeds being magically, genetically altered over hundreds of years. As a player, you will be able to switch between mystic and domestic breeds instantly.

What are the mystic and domestic pairs? What are the origin Boroughs of every breed?

Here are all origin pairs that we have showcased in updates thus far. Shorthair / Bovine = Harvest Prowler / Thumper = Harvest Ragdoll / Fyret = The Metropolis Longhair / Moontail = Luna Snowfoot / Prancer = Sol Wolf / ??? = Cogwheel Littlefang / Stonehide = ???

Can Domestic Breeds be turned into Mystic Breeds (and vice versa)?

Yes. Here is a graphic of the system we are testing, which incorporates Borough origin:

Why not just have separate items for every breed? Why the pairs?

This choice was intended to unilaterally flatten the rarity between mystic and domestic breeds, and instead determine rarity by origin set. With an item for every breed, seeding the items would inevitably become imbalanced in some way. This way, Shorthair and Bovines, for example, are equal opportunity for the player. We did not want to, as a game, incentivize collecting mystic breeds over domestic breeds, thus viewing domestic breeds as a contextually “lesser” option. That has just never been our vision!

Will some Breeds/Patterns/Colors be more rare than others?

Yes. Breed rarity will be dependent on the origin pair. Bovines and Shorthairs may be more common than Longhairs and Moontails, for example. Patterns will have breed and drop rarity. Colors will be dependent on breeding outcomes. You may use our live kit predictor on our website to view how two colors interact. A brief write-up on how color outcomes for kits are calculated is located here!

How much can you customize your two Founder cats?

You will be able to fully customize the colors and sex of your Founders. You will also be able to select from a pre-selected pool of patterns and breeds, which will be changeable for all cats via items. We are currently working on adding the ability to fully customize white coverage for Founders. The only thing you will not be able to change is the Borough birthplace (eye color.) We are also considering adding the ability to freely re-access the creator and change your founders at any time. As a general note, your Founders will be incredibly customizable!

Will kits be able to wear accessories?

Yes! We love that we can do this! This does mean our accessory pool will be more limited. However, kits will be fully customizable!

How will players obtain "Generation 1" cats?

Generation 1 cats are cats which are not born from cats already on the site (i.e “offspring.”) There are several methods to obtain a generation 1 cat, however most notably an item called “incense” can be used to immediately spawn a random generation 1 cat into your camp. Each Borough will have an incense item which spawns a cat with the eyes of said Borough. Incense is obtained via crafting.

Will new colors be added to the demo?

Currently, there are no plans to add new colors, but this possibility is not off the table.

Will you have feathers behind the ear as an accessory?

No. We are aware that, historically, media with anthropomorphized cats has a history of anti-indigenous themes. In the interest of respecting indigenous populations, we will not be illustrating any feather-themed accessories without indigenous sensitivity consultation.

Will I be able to attach tags to my cats? Such as #kit?

Yes, we will be implementing a tagging system!

Will multiple cats be able to have the same species of Fauna companion?

Yes!

Will there be a way to make my cat stay as a kit forever?

Yes. We will be adding perma-kits as a feature.

Can you add a nonbinary/third gender pose to the cats?

We would love to, but we’re a small indie team with limited resources. Three poses with full accessory and pattern functionality is already quite a bit of effort for us, especially with the demand of the art style we are committed to! However, we consider the Mars and Venus poses to be, for all intents and purposes, genderless. The purpose of two adult poses is simply to explore the designs. You will be able to switch between both adult poses at any time via a switch on the cat’s customize page.

Will there be a pronouns section for a cat's page?

We were asked to add this feature quite a bit, and we did add it! We are currently testing a system which may allow custom pronouns (such as neopronouns) that the game will recognize and use in narration and dialogue. This will help aid our initial reservation to the concept.

Will there be a way to change a cat's eye type?

Yes, and eye palette too! The only thing you cannot change is the birth Borough (Borough eye color.)

What's the difference between an Accessory and Decor item?

Accessories are pieces of clothing tailored to layer on each cat pose. They cannot be moved from where they sit on the cat. They can only be shifted above or below other Accessories layered onto the cat. In comparison, Decor items are items which can be shifted, rotated, and resized around the cat. Decor and Backdrop items come together to create a scene!

Can we change a cat's birth Borough/eye color?

No.

To what extent will you feature violence or adult content?

PawBorough is for teens and older. Users must be 13 and up to play. This means that we will feature minor use of moderately strong language, mentions of alcohol, and the allowance of art with cartoon blood and violence. However, photorealistic blood or gore will not be allowed, and we allow absolutely no sexually suggestive content whatsoever.

Will you have a custom system? How will it work?

This question refers to the concept of allowing custom, user-uploaded art to be created into items and imposed over a cat. Yes, we will have a system for this. Our custom cat items are called “pelts.” “Unclipped pelts” will allow for users to draw over the lines of the cat. “Clipped pelts” will go under the lines of a cat, and be easier to work with Accessories. Both will be a premium feature, and come with limitations and restrictions to help maintain the visual identity of the game. We will also be implementing a less complex pelt system for Fauna!

Will you have breeds that resemble big cats?

We will not be featuring any breeds from the Panthera order. This includes lions, jaguars, leopards, tigers, and snow leopards. We also will not be adding cheetahs, due to their cultural association with big cats. In the lore of PawBorough, big cats (and cheetahs) are mythical depictions akin to humans imagining elves! All other breeds from the Felidae family are on the table. This does include wildcats.

Will you add more white coverage possibilities?

Uncertain at this time. The idea is on the table, however we’re currently focused on illustrating for all the planned breeds!

Do you have a “basic” pattern?

No. We do have a pattern called “solid” that may aesthetically resemble a more basic patterning, but we do not have a base-level pattern that users build up from. Instead, all patterns have some degree of rarity and detail.

Is there a way to change a cat's colors?

Yes. Users will have access to items which randomize a single cat’s colors.

Can I rename my cats?

Yes! Much like changing the pose, renaming a cat is able to be done anytime via the customization page.

How will line breaking accents be handled? Won't they clash with apparel?

For those who are unaware, PawBorough features accent genes which may break the silhouette. The answer to this is: yes, they will! We deliberated over this for some time. However, we are treating line-breaking accents much like other accessories. It will be on the onus of the player to prevent clipping with any other accessories, just as accessories can and will clip with one another. Line breaking accents will be layerable among accessories, so users can adjust the layering how they like. From a design standpoint, line-breaking accents will only include biological body modifications. This includes, but is not limited to, horns, teeth, scales, claws, fur, and anything else which would grow from the cat itself. This therefore excludes these attributes from accessories. Overgrowth is an exception to this rule, due to its inception before the restriction was in place. In lore, Overgrowth is explained as a benign, parasitic, magic-touched plant which lives in cat fur and is easily passed to children of infected parents while nesting.

Can accents be in any slot? Can I have the same accent in both slots?

All accent genes can be in either slot! However, you may not have the same accent in both slots. Both slots are able to lack an accent at the same time, however.

What are the default patterns and breeds I can pick for my Founders?

You may create your Founders starting with: Solid Tiger Tuxedo Blotches This list is subject to change. No accent genes will be available for Founders to start with.

How does breeding work?

Breeding is available between two compatible cats. Users will choose to start a nest with two cats. Users will then babysit the nest until the new kits are ready to enter the User’s camp. Kits will inherit colors and patterns based on the parents. Testing of this mechanic is available on our website!

Can players cancel unwanted nests? Is it possible to accidentally lose a nest?

Nests can be reversed via a Bitter Root item. This is an active choice that the player must click several times to confirm. Otherwise, nests remain until the player interacts with them and do not expire.

Can Domestic and Mystic Breeds produce offspring?

Yes! All cats can breed with one another.

How will Paw Borough prevent inbreeding regarding the cats?

Currently, cats which are related via 5 generations apart cannot breed together.

Will cats ever be too old to breed?

We have no intention for a feature like this at this time.

Can cats have multiple mates?

Yes.

How does white coverage work for breeding?

Random coverage spots are chosen for each kit, with dominant spots passed down and recessive spots having a lower chance of showing. The coverage amount is chosen via the algorithm below. none x none => 90% none, 10% low full x none => 5% full, 10% high, 50% medium, 20% low, 5% none full x full => 90% full, 10% high full x medium => 50% full, 10% high, 40% medium full x high => 90% full, 10% high full x low => 25% full, 25% high, 25% medium, 25% small medium x medium => 5% full, 10% high, 50% medium, 20% low, 5% chance of none high x high => 15% full, 20% medium, 65% high, 10% low high x none => 30% none, 30% high, 25% medium, 15% small high x medium => 10% full, 10% small, 40% high, 40% medium high x low => 60% small, 20% medium, 20% high

How many cats are in a litter?

This is subject to change, but a cat can have between 1-4 kits in a single litter.

Can I breed my cats to have different eye colors than my borough?

Yes.

Can I breed my cats with other users?

Yes! We have a system for cross-account nests which will allow two users to both care for a nest and then divide the kits.

Is there a cap on how much regular currency a player can obtain every day?

There will likely be a cap, but questions like these have become difficult to give concrete answers on until we can simulate the economy in closed Beta!

Will there be events during the game?

Yes! PawBorough will have an onsite story which will be told through events, in addition to holiday events which will give users seasonal item rotations.

If I miss story events, how can I catch up?

All real-time story events will be documented in an onsite archive which users can visit and read at any time. Campaign events which surround Guild play will be re-playable, which new users can play at any time.

Will the game have achievements?

Yes. PawBorough will feature a badge and reward system.

Will there be side/minigames?

At this time, we are focused on a closed gameplay loop which is fun, satisfying, and rewarding without the need for an abundance of generalized minigame designs. We may incorporate unique, one-off minigames for immersion in the future. But it is our hope that they won’t be necessary for an enjoyable game. We would much rather focus our resources towards buffing out the gameplay loop, and accommodating several play styles with it!

Are there any plans for a battling system for cats?

Yes! PawBorough will feature teams which may register at the Guild. Users will be able to go on missions with their cats and earn rewards, leveling up their team and earning exclusive items in the process. What stats does a cat have? What are they used for?

Cats feature seven statistics: Stamina, Strength, Sense, Smarts, Speed, Savvy, and Sorcery. A cat's base stat number is divided among these categories. Leveling a cat up will allow the player to build out any given statistical category. Statistics are used for different dynamics in combat (mele, range, healing, dodging, etc.) as well as helping to calculate different daily item yields. Cats can be leveled up both by participating in Guild play and by yielding items. Each cat also has a Fortune and Doom statistic, which affects good luck and bad luck in RNG and general combat. These two stats cannot be changed.

Are base stats completely randomized?

Yes, but there is a cap and a weighted bell curve. All Founders start with the same base stat.

Can I read official lore of the game?

As of right now, we are working on an updated lore page with a more interactive presentation and more meat than our previous iteration. We will notify all social media when we have a new page live.

How will recolors of accessories work?

PawBorough features a dye system. All items will come in 12 standard colors and may be dyed to any of the 12 colors. Dyes are obtained via crafting. “Special dyes,” as they are currently called, will feature more unique coloring from the standard item, such as holographic, polka-dot, or pastel. Special dyes will only be applicable to certain compatible items. (And in all cases, a special dye will only work on an item that the standard doesn’t already apply to. For example, if a shirt is polka-dot by default, there is no reason for the shirt to be compatible with the polka-dot special dye.)

Can I be an Alpha tester? Is Alpha open?

Alpha applications are available here. If this form is closed, it means applications are no longer accepted. Alpha is not open as of June 12th, 2024. We will keep active communication and announce when Alpha opens. Applicants who are chosen will receive emails with the appropriate steps.

If I am chosen as an alpha tester, do I have to sign an NDA?

No.

How will data wipes happen during the closed Beta?

For context, a data wipe consists of removal of all cats, items, currency, and user content. A data wipe will NOT wipe the following: Your account, including your username, credentials, and ID number. Credit for any money previously spent on your account. Closed Beta will feature at least one data wipe as the test comes to a close. However, closed Beta will feature as many data wipes as we the developers deem necessary for testing important game dynamics. As an example, we need to test economic balance, and will wipe as necessary to test new pricing and currency distribution.

Is there a limit to how many Beta Testers there will be?

Closed Beta is limited to the number of Beta Keys sold on our Kickstarter. Population reports put this number at over 1600 keys.

How much earlier do Early Bird tier codes get into the closed Beta?

Early bird codes allow 3 days of early access!

Will Luna Stones be tradeable or will they be locked to your account?

All Kickstarter items will be tradeable.

Are Moontail wings randomly chosen when using a Luna Stone on a cat? What about when you breed a Moontail?

Wing types are random when using a Luna Stone. To change a Moontail’s wing type, an item will be easily available. When breeding, the wing type of the parent will pass down.

I am a backer. How will I receive my Kickstarter rewards?

With the email you used to back, you will be emailed a code for your beta key(s) and a reward code which will be redeemable onsite for your tier rewards/add-ons. Can I still pledge to the Kickstarter?

No.

Are the Kickstarter items obtainable since the campaign ended?

No, and yes. We will not be distributing these items again. They are retired. However, when the site is live, you may trade with backers for Kickstarter items.

Will I lose my Kickstarter rewards after a Beta wipe?

Any redeemable item codes will become redeemable again after a data wipe.

Account

Can two or more people share an account?

No. We limit the game to one account per user. If you are caught sharing your account with another person, you may have your account frozen. All items you may lose by choosing to share your account are at your own risk.

Can system members have individual accounts?

When we say one account per User, we mean User. This means that systems with individual users may have separate accounts. However, any evidence of “funneling,” daily yield transfer, or frequent and egregious transfer of cats or resources which would give a User identifiable advantage over other Users will result in consequences, including but not limited to removal of the aforementioned resources and termination of one or both accounts.

Can you change your Borough after choosing one at signup?

Yes!

Can you change your username? Will multiple people be allowed to have the same username?

Your username will be changeable. No two accounts may share a username.

Am I allowed to have a "side" account?

Accounts are limited to one per user. Evidence of frequent cross-account trading which implies the existence of a side account will result in investigation and consequence.

What is the character limit on usernames?

18. It is the same for cat names.

Will I get my account banned if a housemate and I both play PawBorough, and you recognize the same IP address?

No. In fact, we are rather lenient and understanding of this. We only will take administrative action if the cross-account activity is egregiously imbalanced and rewards one player with a clear, identifiable advantage over other players.

Can players terminate their own account?

Yes.

How many accounts will be reserved for staff use?

The first 10 account IDs will be reserved for staff use. This number may be subject to change.

Is there a referral system? Are there any rewards for referring people?

We are developing a referral system in tandem with our badge system. Our system will reward referring players with a payout every time their referee(s) completes an achievement and earns a badge.

Can I use a cat I made in PawBorough as an original character / purchase commissioned art of this character?

Yes, we love it! However, no content featuring our doll art may be used commercially. You may not profit off of our exact images. We also require that any public use of our art or designs be credited back to our website.

Can I use cats in offsite roleplay? Do I need to give credit? Can I go make my own story out of my PawBorough characters?

Yes. Credit requirement largely depends. If you use an image from the site, you must credit us. If you’re using a mystic design of ours, those creature designs are owned by us. We would prefer if you did not completely divorce them from our game and give us credit for the creature design. Under no circumstances may you use any mystic designs in commercial content. However, we don’t own the concept of a generic cat character. If you create and name a domestic cat in our game, you’re welcome to take it elsewhere and do anything you damn well please with it! Again, so long as you credit any use of our images, and use none of our images commercially! Also, for clarity, we don’t own the concept of moth cats or cow cats, but our specific design elements in tandem with the breed titles are attributed to us. You’re totally free to make a moth cat design for your own use!

Are we allowed to trade art for beta keys with other users?

Yes.

Is offsite trading allowed?

For beta keys, yes, but at your own risk. Note that many games of our genre disallow cross-site trading with games in development, or altogether. We do not allow nor endorse disregarding the TOS of other games. We are considering an embargo on cross-site trading of cats, items, and site currency both during Beta and for a brief initial launch period. This is to help preserve the microcosm of our onsite economy and grow it to a healthy, prosperous size before introducing the possibility of cross-site scalping. We hope you understand this decision. We’ll keep forefront communication with Users on these policies during the game’s lifespan.

Can I sell my Kickstarter rewards for real-life currency?

No. This will never be allowed.

Can I trade my Kickstarter rewards for digital or physical art?

Yes. Art as a traded good would not be counted under the cross-site embargo. If any cross-site content is included in conditions of the trade, it would be considered illegal.

Will there be a safe way to exchange premium currency for regular currency with other players?

Two-step cross-account trading will be in place. Both players will have to approve a supposed trade before it will activate.

Full service web design encompasses a comprehensive approach, ensuring every aspect of your site is tailored to meet your unique needs. From the initial concept to the final launch, this service provides an array of offerings, including website service, responsive web design, and custom design services. Whether you’re a startup seeking to establish your brand or an established enterprise aiming to enhance your online presence, understanding the elements of full service web design is essential.

Full service web design

Full service web design encompasses all aspects of creating a website, from initial conceptualization to ongoing maintenance. This approach ensures that every detail is carefully considered to meet the specific needs of a business or individual. With a team of experienced designers and developers, full service web design offers a seamless experience that integrates aesthetics, functionality, and user experience.

One of the key advantages of opting for a full service web design is the cohesion of the website elements. Since all parts of the project are managed by a single team, there is less chance for miscommunication or inconsistency in design. This results in a more polished final product that reflects the brand’s identity while providing an engaging experience for visitors.

Additionally, full service web design allows for customized solutions tailored to unique requirements. Whether you need an e-commerce platform, a portfolio site, or a blog, a full service provider will offer dedicated support and expert advice throughout the entire process, ensuring your vision comes to life exactly as you imagined.

Website service

In today's digital landscape, website service is essential for businesses to thrive and maintain an online presence. A well-structured website serves as a powerful tool that encourages customer engagement and drives sales. By investing in a comprehensive website service, businesses can ensure that their website not only looks great but also functions seamlessly across all devices.

A key aspect of website service is the ability to optimize for search engines. By implementing SEO best practices, businesses can enhance their visibility and attract more organic traffic. This is where a reliable website service provider plays a crucial role, as they possess the expertise and techniques necessary to elevate your search engine rankings.

Furthermore, ongoing support and maintenance are vital components of a reliable website service. As technology evolves and user needs change, having a team that can promptly address issues or updates will keep your website relevant and effective in reaching target audiences. This ongoing relationship is instrumental in achieving long-term success in the digital realm.

Responsive web design

Responsive web design is an essential aspect of modern web development that ensures a seamless user experience across a variety of devices. With the increasing use of smartphones and tablets, having a website that adapts to different screen sizes is not just a luxury but a necessity.

The core principle of responsive web design is fluidity. This means that the layout of your website adjusts dynamically based on the screen width, ensuring that content remains accessible and visually appealing regardless of the device used. This approach improves usability and can significantly boost conversion rates.

Incorporating responsive web design techniques involves using flexible grids, images, and CSS media queries. These elements work together to create a layout that responds gracefully to changes in screen size, making your website not only functional but also competitive in the digital marketplace.

Custom design services

In today's digital landscape, custom design services have emerged as a vital component of creating a strong online presence. Businesses understand that a one-size-fits-all approach does not cater to their unique needs and branding. Therefore, opting for custom design services allows them to differentiate themselves in a crowded market.

These services offer tailored solutions that resonate with a company's specifics, from colors to typography and layout. By leveraging custom design services, businesses can ensure that their websites not only reflect their brand identity but also provide an intuitive user experience. This is crucial for keeping visitors engaged and encouraging them to take the desired actions.

Investing in custom design services ultimately contributes to better customer satisfaction and improved conversion rates. With a website designed specifically for their target audience, businesses can more effectively communicate their message and achieve their goals. This bespoke approach is invaluable in today's competitive environment.

Bye, I guess

Hi folks: I’ve enjoyed my time on tumblr while it lasted. Unfortunately, the new dashboard makes the site so unpleasant to use that I’m afraid that enjoyment (and thus my use of the site) has come to an end. I still have some reblogs queued up, and I may pop in now and then, but don’t expect me to be around much anymore.

For the record, here is the support request I put in yesterday:

Why is my dashboard now twitter. This format sucks. It's always sucked. It feels absolutely horrible to use on desktop (which I do exclusively and that will not change). This horrible ui is a big part of why didn't really use twitter (it sucked then to).

Here is tumblr’s answer:

Hello, Thanks for reaching out to Tumblr Community Support and sharing your thoughts on the new dashboard layout. We often test new ways to make Tumblr better. It sounds like your account may have been selected to experience a test of one of these improvements. Thanks for your patience while we work on this! You may see your Tumblr experience return to normal as we continue testing. Kind regards, Chris

(Please note, this appears to be a copy-paste form response. You can see another example of it here.)

Here was my response:

Hi Chris! I "may" not see my Tumblr user return to normal, because I'm not returning to Tumblr until it is reasonably usable again for me. This "experiment" is effectively an update that has made the site so unpleasant for me to use that I will not be doing so. What will tumblr being doing to allow me to use the site? I do not appreciate being told that my support ticket is "sharing [my] thoughts on the new dashboard layout." I neither asked or appreciate being selected taking part, without my knowledge or consent, in an experiment to allow a company to do product development. My ticket is not my "thoughts on the new dashboard layout." It is my report that the site is effectively not usuable. Furthermore, while not illegal, human experimentation is generally considered unethical without proper consent and review process. If my dash returns to a status that I can use: 1) What guarantees do I have that tumblr will not experiment on me again? 2) What other experiments does tumblr think it is ethical to do on me without proper consent? Kind regards to Chris, and explicitly not to your employer.

24 hours later, I have not received a follow up response.

I was originally going to write a lot more about why I think this is such an atrocious set of moves and responses by tumblr, but I realized that being on the site long enough to format and post it (I’m doing this writing on my desktop) would be too unpleasant to make it worthwhile.

Instead, I want to make two quick notes about traps I see people falling in to:

1) Tumblr is not your friend. It is a company that wants to use you to extrude profit. This hold true regardless of whether it is shaped like a shareholder’s report, a formal staff post, or a blog that looks just like a user like you. Regardless of its form, it is no more your friend than the “intern” who runs a corporate brand account.

2) It is fine to pay money for a product you enjoy. This product might be a digital sticker or a minigame on a website, or some form of subscription to the site itself. However, if you are not enjoying a product, or if you feel that the product is bad or exploitative, you have no obligation to invest in it. And you should be particularly wary when a for-profit business is attempting to make you, as a customer, feel emotionally and personally invested in supporting that business (whether that be in terms of time, energy, or money).

Anyway, I’m still hoping that I will be able to unpin this post at some point, but for the foreseeable future: bye!

The Role of User Experience (UX) in CRO: Why Design Matters

In today's competitive digital landscape, businesses are constantly seeking ways to enhance their websites and drive higher conversions. One of the most effective methods for achieving this is Conversion Rate Optimisation (CRO), and at the heart of any successful CRO strategy lies User Experience (UX) design. But why does UX matter so much when it comes to improving conversion rates? Let’s explore the critical role of UX in CRO and how focusing on design can make all the difference.

The Importance of User Experience

User Experience encompasses the entire interaction a user has with a website, from the moment they land on a page to the completion of a desired action, such as making a purchase or signing up for a newsletter. A seamless, intuitive, and pleasant experience ensures that users can navigate a site with ease, ultimately leading to higher conversions.

When the importance of user experience is overlooked, businesses run the risk of alienating potential customers through confusing layouts, slow load times, or poor mobile optimisation. In contrast, a well-designed website can dramatically enhance user satisfaction and increase the likelihood of conversions, making UX a vital element of any CRO strategy.

The Role of User Experience in CRO

So, what role does UX design play in CRO? At its core, UX design is about reducing friction points—those moments where users experience confusion or frustration. CRO aims to optimise these moments to increase the chances of users completing a desired action.

Here’s how UX directly impacts conversion rates:

Ease of Navigation: A clear and simple navigation structure enables users to find what they’re looking for quickly. If visitors have to dig through multiple pages to reach their goal, they're likely to abandon the site.

Mobile Responsiveness: With more users accessing websites through mobile devices, ensuring that your site is fully responsive across all devices is crucial. A mobile-friendly design enhances UX and can significantly boost conversions.

Visual Hierarchy: The way content is presented matters. By guiding users' eyes to key areas such as calls-to-action (CTAs) or important information through strategic design choices, you can improve user engagement and increase conversions.

Page Speed: Slow-loading websites lead to user frustration and higher bounce rates. Optimising UX involves reducing page load times to keep users engaged and on track to conversion.

Trust and Credibility: Well-designed websites build trust. Elements such as clear messaging, professional design, and easy-to-find contact information contribute to an overall positive user experience, which, in turn, increases conversion rates.

Design Matters for CRO Success

When CRO and UX come together, the results can be powerful. For instance, simply improving the placement and design of a CTA button or reducing form fields can result in a significant uptick in conversions. This is where the expertise of a specialised CRO agency in Australia comes into play, offering tailored strategies that combine data-driven insights with exceptional design to optimise user experience and drive business growth.

At a CRO agency, professionals understand that UX is not just about aesthetics; it’s about understanding user behaviour, analysing data, and implementing design changes that resonate with your audience. By partnering with experts, businesses can ensure that their website is optimised for both usability and conversions.

Conclusion

The importance of user experience in CRO cannot be overstated. Good UX design is essential for keeping users engaged, guiding them through the conversion funnel, and ensuring they leave your website with a positive impression. Whether you’re aiming to reduce bounce rates, increase sales, or grow your subscriber base, focusing on UX design is the key to unlocking higher conversion rates.

If you're ready to elevate your website’s performance through enhanced UX design, consider reaching out to a CRO agency in Australia that can help you optimise your digital strategy and drive meaningful results.

AI Agent Development: How to Create Intelligent Virtual Assistants for Business Success

In today's digital landscape, businesses are increasingly turning to AI-powered virtual assistants to streamline operations, enhance customer service, and boost productivity. AI agent development is at the forefront of this transformation, enabling companies to create intelligent, responsive, and highly efficient virtual assistants. In this blog, we will explore how to develop AI agents and leverage them for business success.

Understanding AI Agents and Virtual Assistants

AI agents, or intelligent virtual assistants, are software programs that use artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language processing (NLP) to interact with users, automate tasks, and make decisions. These agents can be deployed across various platforms, including websites, mobile apps, and messaging applications, to improve customer engagement and operational efficiency.

Key Features of AI Agents

Natural Language Processing (NLP): Enables the assistant to understand and process human language.

Machine Learning (ML): Allows the assistant to improve over time based on user interactions.

Conversational AI: Facilitates human-like interactions.

Task Automation: Handles repetitive tasks like answering FAQs, scheduling appointments, and processing orders.

Integration Capabilities: Connects with CRM, ERP, and other business tools for seamless operations.

Steps to Develop an AI Virtual Assistant

1. Define Business Objectives

Before developing an AI agent, it is crucial to identify the business goals it will serve. Whether it's improving customer support, automating sales inquiries, or handling HR tasks, a well-defined purpose ensures the assistant aligns with organizational needs.

2. Choose the Right AI Technologies

Selecting the right technology stack is essential for building a powerful AI agent. Key technologies include:

NLP frameworks: OpenAI's GPT, Google's Dialogflow, or Rasa.

Machine Learning Platforms: TensorFlow, PyTorch, or Scikit-learn.

Speech Recognition: Amazon Lex, IBM Watson, or Microsoft Azure Speech.

Cloud Services: AWS, Google Cloud, or Microsoft Azure.

3. Design the Conversation Flow

A well-structured conversation flow is crucial for user experience. Define intents (what the user wants) and responses to ensure the AI assistant provides accurate and helpful information. Tools like chatbot builders or decision trees help streamline this process.

4. Train the AI Model

Training an AI assistant involves feeding it with relevant datasets to improve accuracy. This may include:

Supervised Learning: Using labeled datasets for training.

Reinforcement Learning: Allowing the assistant to learn from interactions.

Continuous Learning: Updating models based on user feedback and new data.

5. Test and Optimize

Before deployment, rigorous testing is essential to refine the AI assistant's performance. Conduct:

User Testing: To evaluate usability and responsiveness.

A/B Testing: To compare different versions for effectiveness.

Performance Analysis: To measure speed, accuracy, and reliability.

6. Deploy and Monitor

Once the AI assistant is live, continuous monitoring and optimization are necessary to enhance user experience. Use analytics to track interactions, identify issues, and implement improvements over time.

Benefits of AI Virtual Assistants for Businesses

1. Enhanced Customer Service

AI-powered virtual assistants provide 24/7 support, instantly responding to customer queries and reducing response times.

2. Increased Efficiency

By automating repetitive tasks, businesses can save time and resources, allowing employees to focus on higher-value tasks.

3. Cost Savings

AI assistants reduce the need for large customer support teams, leading to significant cost reductions.

4. Scalability

Unlike human agents, AI assistants can handle multiple conversations simultaneously, making them highly scalable solutions.

5. Data-Driven Insights

AI assistants gather valuable data on customer behavior and preferences, enabling businesses to make informed decisions.

Future Trends in AI Agent Development

1. Hyper-Personalization

AI assistants will leverage deep learning to offer more personalized interactions based on user history and preferences.

2. Voice and Multimodal AI

The integration of voice recognition and visual processing will make AI assistants more interactive and intuitive.

3. Emotional AI

Advancements in AI will enable virtual assistants to detect and respond to human emotions for more empathetic interactions.

4. Autonomous AI Agents

Future AI agents will not only respond to queries but also proactively assist users by predicting their needs and taking independent actions.

Conclusion

AI agent development is transforming the way businesses interact with customers and streamline operations. By leveraging cutting-edge AI technologies, companies can create intelligent virtual assistants that enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and drive business success. As AI continues to evolve, embracing AI-powered assistants will be essential for staying competitive in the digital era.

Why SEO Remains the Best Marketing Strategy for Businesses in New York in 2025

In 2025, the digital landscape continues to evolve, and with it, the marketing strategies that businesses rely on to connect with customers. While many marketing tactics come and go, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) has proven to be a long-term strategy that provides sustainable results, especially for businesses in New York. The competition in this bustling, ever-growing city is fierce, and companies must ensure they’re easily found by potential customers online. Here's why SEO remains the best marketing strategy for businesses in New York in 2025.

1. Increased Search Engine Dependency

As of 2025, over 93% of online experiences begin with a search engine (Source: HubSpot). This underscores the importance of being visible on search engine results pages (SERPs). With New York’s highly competitive market, businesses that don’t appear on the first page of search results are effectively invisible to the majority of their target audience. SEO optimizes your website to ensure your business is ranked favorably on search engines like Google, helping you gain a competitive edge.

2. Cost-Effectiveness

SEO continues to outperform paid advertising in terms of return on investment (ROI). While paid ads might give you a short-term boost, organic search (i.e., the results you get from SEO) remains one of the most cost-effective forms of online marketing. According to Statista, 70-80% of users ignore paid ads in favor of organic results. For New York businesses, the financial benefit of organic SEO is significant, especially for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that might have limited advertising budgets.

3. Enhanced User Experience (UX)

Google’s algorithm updates have increasingly focused on rewarding websites that offer a positive user experience. This includes fast load times, mobile optimization, and easy navigation. SEO isn’t just about keywords; it's also about creating a website that delivers value to your users. Businesses in New York need to invest in SEO to improve their websites’ performance, ensuring customers stay on their pages longer, which in turn boosts rankings.

A seamless UX also helps to convert visitors into paying customers. Studies show that 53% of mobile users will abandon a website if it takes longer than three seconds to load. This means optimizing your website for speed and usability through SEO is crucial.

4. Local SEO and Hyperlocal Targeting

In 2025, local search has become more important than ever, especially for businesses in large cities like New York. People increasingly rely on their mobile devices to search for businesses “near me.” For example, a search for “best pizza near me” on Google returns highly relevant local results.

SEO plays a pivotal role in local SEO, ensuring that your business appears in local search results when potential customers are actively looking for products or services in your vicinity. Optimizing for local search with strategies like Google My Business (GMB) optimization, local citations, and geo-targeted keywords allows your business to capture a significant share of the local market.

In fact, 46% of all Google searches are seeking local information, and 78% of mobile local searches lead to an offline purchase (Source: Google). This means SEO is crucial for connecting with potential customers who are ready to buy in your local area.

5. Brand Credibility and Trust

In 2025, customers are increasingly skeptical of paid ads. The rise of ad-blocking software and general distrust in online advertising has led consumers to value organic search results more than ever. When your business ranks high on SERPs, customers perceive it as a more credible and trustworthy source.

SEO allows businesses in New York to establish a strong digital presence by improving website content, gaining backlinks from reputable websites, and generating high-quality reviews. This increases the likelihood that potential customers will engage with your brand and eventually make a purchase.

6. Long-Term Results

Unlike paid ads, where you must constantly spend to stay visible, SEO can provide long-term results. When you invest in a comprehensive SEO strategy, the effects are cumulative. High-quality content, backlinks, and on-page optimization continue to pay dividends long after the initial effort. This makes SEO an ideal long-term marketing strategy for businesses in New York looking to build a lasting digital presence.

7. SEO and Mobile Optimization

With mobile traffic accounting for over 55% of all global internet traffic (Source: Statista), ensuring that your website is mobile-friendly is essential in 2025. Google’s mobile-first indexing means that the search engine prioritizes mobile-optimized websites when ranking pages. This means New York businesses must prioritize mobile optimization as part of their overall SEO strategy.

SEO helps improve your website’s responsiveness, page load speeds, and mobile usability, leading to better rankings and more conversions from mobile users.

Why SEO is the Best Strategy for New York Businesses in 2025

As businesses in New York continue to compete for consumer attention, SEO remains a critical marketing strategy for success. From improving visibility on search engines to building trust with local customers, SEO provides a comprehensive solution to grow your business.

Whether you’re looking to capture more organic traffic, improve the user experience, or ensure you appear in local search results, SEO offers measurable and sustainable results that other marketing strategies cannot match. With the growing dependency on search engines and the increasing importance of local search, businesses in New York that prioritize SEO will continue to outperform their competitors in 2025 and beyond.

Websites that are difficult to navigate, slow to load, or visually cluttered often drive users away. A seamless and intuitive user experience is essential to retain visitors and reduce bounce rates.

With mobile devices dominating web traffic, failing to create a responsive design can result in missed opportunities. A mobile-friendly website is crucial for reaching and engaging with a wider audience.

A Quick Word About Prototyping 🛠️✨

Prototyping is a crucial step in the design process that allows you to visualize and test your ideas before final implementation. Let’s break down what a prototype is and why it’s essential!

What is a Prototype?

Interactive Mockup: A prototype is an interactive version of your design, showcasing how users will navigate through your website or application. It simulates the user experience without being the final product.

Not Final Design: Keep in mind that a prototype is not set in stone; it’s a tool for exploration, feedback, and iteration.

Why Prototype?

Test Functionality: Prototypes help you validate whether the functionality of your design works as intended. You can identify any usability issues early on.

User Feedback: By sharing prototypes with users or stakeholders, you can gather valuable feedback that informs improvements before diving into development.

Visualize User Journey: Prototyping allows you to map out the user journey, helping to ensure a seamless experience and identify any roadblocks.

Types of Prototypes

Low-Fidelity Prototypes: Often hand-drawn sketches or simple wireframes. Great for brainstorming and early feedback on layout and flow.

High-Fidelity Prototypes: More detailed and interactive, resembling the final design closely. Tools like Figma, Adobe XD, or InVision can help create these.

Best Practices for Prototyping

Keep It Simple: Focus on key features and flows rather than perfecting every detail.

Iterate Quickly: Don’t be afraid to make changes based on feedback. The prototyping stage is about refining your ideas.

Involve Users Early: Get input from real users to understand their needs and pain points.

Quick Tips:

Use prototyping tools that suit your workflow and team collaboration.

Document the feedback you receive to guide your next design iterations.

Share your prototypes in various formats (links, presentations) for wider accessibility.

Prototyping is an invaluable part of the web design process, allowing you to explore ideas and create better user experiences. Embrace it to enhance your web design journey! 🌟

A Beginner’s Guide to Understanding Website Analytics for Business Growth

In today's digital world, having a website is just the first step toward establishing an online presence. Understanding how to leverage website analytics is equally crucial for driving business growth. Website analytics provide valuable insights into how users interact with your site, what they are looking for, and where you can improve. This guide aims to demystify website analytics for beginners, outlining the essential metrics to track, the tools to use, and how to apply these insights to enhance your business.

What Are Website Analytics? Website analytics are the processes of collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data related to your website's performance. This data helps you understand visitor behavior, including: Traffic sources: Where your visitors come from, whether through search engines, social media, or direct visits. User behavior: How users navigate through your site, including which pages they visit, how long they stay, and where they drop off. Conversion metrics: The actions users take on your site, such as completing a purchase, filling out a contact form, or signing up for a newsletter. By leveraging analytics for business growth, you can make informed decisions that enhance user experience, boost conversions, and ultimately increase revenue.

Key Metrics to Track Understanding which metrics are vital for your business is the first step in utilizing website analytics effectively. Here are some of the key metrics to focus on: Traffic Volume: This refers to the number of visitors to your website over a specific period. Monitoring traffic volume helps you assess the effectiveness of your marketing strategies. Bounce Rate: This percentage indicates the number of visitors who leave your site after viewing only one page. A high bounce rate may suggest that your content isn't engaging or that users cannot find what they are looking for. Average Session Duration: This metric measures how long, on average, visitors spend on your site. Longer session durations often correlate with more engaging content and a better user experience. Conversion Rate: This critical metric tracks the percentage of visitors who complete a desired action, such as making a purchase or signing up for a newsletter. Analyzing your conversion rate can highlight the effectiveness of your calls to action and overall site usability. Page Views per Session: This measures the average number of pages viewed during a single session. More page views indicate that users find your content valuable enough to explore further. By regularly monitoring these metrics, you can gather valuable insights into your website's performance and user behavior, ultimately leading to better business decisions.

Tools for Website Analytics Several tools are available for tracking website analytics, each offering unique features and insights. Here are some of the most popular options: Google Analytics: This free tool is one of the most widely used analytics platforms, providing in-depth insights into website traffic, user behavior, and conversion tracking. With Google Analytics, you can set up goals to monitor specific actions taken by users on your site. Google Search Console: This tool focuses on your website's search performance, offering insights into how your site appears in search results and which queries bring traffic to your site. It also helps identify technical issues that could affect your SEO. Hotjar: This tool provides heatmaps and session recordings that visually demonstrate user interactions on your site. This information can help identify user behavior patterns, allowing you to optimize your website's design and functionality. SEMrush: While primarily an SEO tool, SEMrush offers features for tracking website performance and traffic analysis. It also provides competitor analysis, allowing you to benchmark your site against others in your industry. Matomo: An open-source analytics platform, Matomo offers complete control over your data. It provides similar features to Google Analytics while allowing for more customization and privacy options. By utilizing these tools, you can gather comprehensive data to understand user behavior better and make informed decisions.

How to Use Analytics for Business Growth Collecting data is only the first step; analyzing and applying the insights to drive business growth is where the real value lies.
