Skipissues served a global student audience with diverse education systems, search behaviours, and decision-making patterns. The challenge was designing a unified digital and growth strategy that could scale globally while guiding users from discovery to confident action.
As a co-founder, I led the growth and product strategy, treating SEO, digital marketing, and product design as a single behavioural system. The focus was on structuring content around decision stages, using SEO to qualify intent, reducing cognitive load, and applying behavioural tracking to identify friction and drop-off.
Skipissues evolved from a content-driven platform into a structured global discovery system. User pathways became clearer, engagement improved on high-intent content, bounce decreased through better intent alignment, and the platform gained a scalable framework adaptable across markets.
Search-driven global discovery at scale.
Intent-qualified growth through SEO and UX optimization.
Weekly to monthly active user engagement.
Early-stage funding validating product direction.
The Skipissues brand and website were built as a product design system, with consistent typography, color, and layout rules supporting clarity, scalability, and usability. Visual decisions reinforced information hierarchy and navigation patterns, ensuring the interface could evolve as programs, content, and markets expanded without compromising user experience.
User flows were continuously tested and refined through A/B experimentation and personalization to improve clarity and decision confidence.
Behavioural data guided design to surface the right information at the right time.
Analytics were embedded from day one, unifying marketing and product data to provide clear visibility into user behaviour, search demand, and performance.
This foundation supported faster decisions, ongoing optimization, and scalable growth.
Skipissues was designed as a global-first platform built for clarity, scalability, and consistent user experience across markets. The site architecture and user flows were structured to support discovery and decision-making at scale while remaining flexible as content, programs, and regions expanded.
