Abstract

Digital marketing is needed by companies to achieve more profits compared to conventional marketing. One of the benefits of digital marketing is that it can reduce company marketing costs and connect and disseminate company-related information to Internet users throughout the world. PT Indoneptune Net Mfg is a fishing gear industrial company that carries out a joint venture between Japan (Momoi Fishing Net Mfg. co., Ltd) and Indonesia. PT Indoneptune Net Mfg has its digital marketing media, namely the website. However, currently, the company website is not optimal because it does not contain information about the company or company products on the company website. This makes the author suggest optimizing the company's website because the information contained on the website can be consumed by the entire world community. The information contained on the website makes customers more confident in the company's existence and increases their confidence in deciding to purchase the company's products. The method that will be used is analyzing company data using the SWOT concept and improving the appearance of the company website using design thinking. Then, using the design thought method, a prototype will be made to carry out design testing using a usability test. The results of this research, the score obtained for the company website design of PT Indoeptune Net Mfg was 93.8% with a very high score category for all aspects.

Introduction

Marketing is a managerial process that can encourage individuals or groups to get something desired or needed to create an idea, offer, and exchange products that have value for others (Ariyanto et al., 2023). Marketing is an essential component of achieving success for the perpetrator's business. Marketing This can help profit finances and value the company (Sudirman et al., 2022). Digital marketing is an activity of achieving objectives from marketing using digital media, technology, and data (Christina, Fenni, & Rosalina, 2019).

This matters because digital marketing can connect information companies to the whole world without sending company people to all countries (Chakti, 2019). Under this is data sourced from internet users worldwide from World Internet Stats.

Table 1 shows that internet users in the world amounting to 5,385,798,406 people. If utilized well by the company, of course, it will give big profits for the company. Additionally, with African internet users 602,940,784 and based on information from interviews together, father Ponirin Sugito, as Field Expert Implementation of Agreement Results Trading International FTA Center Bandung and Unpad Lecturer, put forward that the State of Indonesia at this time This new just Work The same with the country of Mozambique that is is the Indonesia-Mozambique Preferential Trade Agreement (IM-PTA). IM- PTA was signed by the Minister of Trade of the Republic of Indonesia with the Minister of Trade and Industry Mozambique on 27 Aug 2019 in Maputo, Mozambique. So, there is a subtraction tariff export from 2.5% to 0% for product fishing nets. This company could use the subtraction tariff to enter the Mozambique market (Africa Region).

One of the examples of digital marketing media that can be used is a website. The website is combined from website pages and associated files to that website Alone (Putra, Budiono, & Hediyanto, 2023). The website functions as a tool or media that can give information, build company branding, promote media, service consumers, and act as a medium for conveying suggestions and criticism (Huda, 2020). However, the company needs to pay attention to its website Because websites can also influence the attitude of candidate customers in purchasing products. An online study (Ayu, 2023) states that there are factors that can influence the attitude of candidate customers in purchasing products in a way online, such as perceived risk, perceived benefit, motivation company, design website, convenience, security, quality issue, product, trust, promotion, efficiency time, price, response, and variety goods.

If a company wants to give good service to users, then planning the website must be in accordance with the desired user (Iqbal, Witjaksono, & Kurniawan, 2015). An iterative process is carried out to identify various choices of strategies and solutions. To understand the user, assume and disclose the return meaning from the problem; the process is design thinking (Foundation, Dam, & Siang, 2021).

PT Indoneptune Net Mfg. is a company operating in the field of netting (PRATAMA, n.d.). One of the fields of marketing used by the company PT Indoneptune Net Mfg is the website. However, after seeing the PT website. Indoptune Net Manufacturing currently Needs to work in a way maximum. So, we did a study for an optimization website company. The method will use company data analysis using SWOT and improvement concepts displayed on the company website using design thinking (Akhlak, Nastiti, Fatullah, & PU, 2023). Then, on to the method of design thinking, we will make use of a prototype to carry out design tests using usability testing approach heuristic evaluation as testing prototype that has been made.

 

Research methods

The method used in this research is SWOT analysis and design thinking with the type of test used is heuristic evaluation.

 

SWOT

SWOT analysis can provide an overview or identification of factors that can influence the achievement of company goals, both internal and external to the company. SWOT can be used to see more clearly the internal strengths and weaknesses of the company, which can be utilized to face opportunities and challenges external to the company (Wijayati, 2019). The company's SWOT analysis begins with an interview with the company to find out information about the company's strengths, company weaknesses, company opportunities and company challenges. Then the information will be poured into a SWOT matrix to analyze the company's strategy which will be linked to the website.

 

 

Design Thinking

Design thinking is a method of planning a website that will proposed to the company. Then, the method of design thinking will done, making use of prototypes to carry out design tests using usability testing.

Design thinking has some stages: empathizing, defining, ideating, prototyping, and testing. Empathize is purposeful for a more detailed understanding of the problem at hand. Define duty for gathering all information obtained from stage empathize. Ideate is the process of obtaining ideas for moderate solutions faced. A prototype is part of the implementation of ideas that have been obtained previously for production products or trial applications. Stage This test is the stage for defining repeat and empathizing with repeat to ensure the solution is best for the user.

 

Heuristic Evaluation

The type of test used is heuristic evaluation. Heuristic evaluation is a process of the extent of the problem of inner website matter usability (usability) in design between faces. That problem will be identified with interaction usability between man and computer. Study This will addressed to users of the PT Indoneptune Net Mfg company website.

Study in method heuristic evaluation in measurement and evaluation something system According to Jakob Nielsen, there are 10, including:

1.      Visibility of system status

2.      Suitability between systems and the natural world

3.      Control use and freedom

4.      Consistency and standards

5.      Prevention For error

6.      Recognize that recalling

7.      Flexibility and efficiency in use

8.      Aesthetic and minimalist design

9.      Help users recognize, diagnose, and recover from error

10.   Help and documentation

In research, the urgency in doing repair prototype can be measured with mark severity as follows:

a.      Value 0 (Disagree), a problem with the system No found

b.      Value 1 (Cosmetic Problem), if time-limited, existing problems No need to repair Because No influence user.

c.      Score 2 (Minor Usability Problem), improvement: Problems in the system can bother the users with low-level priority.

d.      Value 3 (Major Usability Problem): Problems in the system bother the user. So, it is necessary to repair with priority.

Value 4 (Usability Catastrophe): The problem is found to be fatal, so it needs to be repaired as soon as possible before users use the system. This value is obtained with the method given.

It will be used to choose three evaluators and interview them with related questions with 10 aspects, according to Nielsen, who has explained on. Next, the information obtained from the evaluator will made into a table, and the percentage will measure how much Far designed an appropriate website with the needs of candidate users.

𝑻 � 𝑷𝒏

Calculation in scale This is with 𝑻 as the total number of evaluators and 𝑷𝒏 as the number selected score in measurement.

Interpretation results obtained must be known before scoring highest (x) and score lowest (y) with the formula:

Y= Highest score Likert x amount respondents

X= Lowest score Likert x amount respondents
