I conducted open card sorting to organize the website’s navigation so users can easily find and buy music event tickets.
Instructions: I clearly explained the task to participants, gave them the cards, and asked them to sort them into groups that made sense to them.
Observation: I observed how they sorted the cards and asked questions if needed to understand their thought process.
I used and tested the insights to reorganize the navigation and content and refined it based on feedbacks.
