The challenge
Lumen API needed a site that was faster, easier to edit and easier to find. A searchable docs site with versioned guides, code samples and a status page.
What we did
- Audited content, metadata and performance
- Rebuilt pages from a small set of reusable blocks
- Set up review and approval so only checked content goes live
- Added structured data, redirects and a sitemap
Results
Measured over the first 90 days after launch.
