What to Prepare Before Your Website Build Starts
Projects run late for one reason more than any other: content. Here is how to be ready.
Design and development rarely delay a website. Waiting on content does. If you gather these things before day one, your build ships on schedule.
Your logo in the highest quality file you have, plus your brand colours and fonts if they exist. If they do not, that is fine, I can set a direction for you.
A list of the pages you want, in the order you want them in the menu. Home, About, Services, Projects, Contact is a solid default for most service businesses.
The text for each page, even in rough form. A messy paragraph I can polish is far more useful than an empty section waiting for inspiration.
Photos: your team, your work, your premises, your products. Real photography beats stock images every time and it is the fastest way to build trust with a stranger.
Your contact details exactly as they should appear: phone, email, address, service areas, opening hours and social profiles.
Access details if the site already exists: hosting, domain registrar and platform logins. Getting these early prevents a scramble on launch day.
