CEWQI — Cara's Extensive Web Quality Index
Structured Evaluation & Web Analysis
CEWQI is the evaluation framework I developed to assess websites as interconnected systems rather than isolated design elements.
It examines structure, hierarchy, accessibility, and usability together — identifying where alignment breaks down and where refinement strengthens the overall experience.
Each project receives an indexed assessment to clarify priorities and guide intentional improvement.
CEWQI In Practice
Applied: Service-Based Website Evaluation
To demonstrate CEWQI in practice, I evaluated a former e-commerce client (site now closed) using archived screenshots — identifying friction points across five key criteria that affected user experience and conversion.
Solid usability with decent load times, but navigation issues and weak CTAs hold back the overall user experience.
Poor navigation structure leads to user frustration and potential customer loss.
CTAs exist but are not optimized. Need better placement and messaging to drive conversions.
Significant attention needed. Lacks basic accessibility features, limiting reach for users with disabilities.
Content is logically structured but lacks polish in information hierarchy. Users can find key sections but may experience minor friction.
I developed CEWQI to formalize the way I see websites — as interconnected systems rather than isolated pages. It helps surface structural gaps, hierarchy inconsistencies, and accessibility blind spots before they become business problems. It is both analytical and adaptable — and it continues to evolve alongside emerging standards and technologies.
