The changes I deployed last week made conversion worse, not better.

In a rush before my vacation last week, I redesigned the entire website and I deployed the updates with the end goal of boosting conversion rates.

But the opposite occurred. Not a single sale during the entire week. I wasn't too bothered about it as I thought it was just a random drop/seasonality effects or something similar. Until my sister came to visit and I asked her to test out my website.

That's when I realized there were 2 issues:

• It wasn't rendering properly on older browsers (OKLCH not supported)

• Google Auth was no longer working for new users This resulted in lower activity on the website, less sign-ups, and less sales.

I did the following to fix this:

• Re-implemented Google Auth integration with Supabase

• Added fallback CSS code to my TailwindCSS file to handle fallback scenarios for DaisyUI on older browsers
  
  

Result: woke up to 3 sales and currently have 5 sales in the last 24 hours! 🔥
