How to prepare for a website project: what to have ready

The best websites are born not when the developer starts coding, but when the client clearly knows what they want. A bit of preparation saves weeks and often money. Here are six things worth having ready.

Content — the most common cause of delay

1. A clear goal — what the site should do

Before colors, answer the key question: what do you want? More inquiries? Online sales? Fewer calls? The goal shapes everything — structure, copy, buttons.

2. Content — text and photos

The most common cause of delays. Think about your services, advantages, your story. You don't need perfect text — just ideas we shape together. Real photos beat stock.

3. Examples you like

Collect 3–5 sites you like and note what exactly: style, colors, how information is presented. This conveys your taste faster and more precisely than words.

4. Logo and brand

If you have a logo, prepare a quality (ideally vector) version, plus brand colors and fonts. No logo? That can be part of the project — just know what you have.

5. Domain and access

Think about your domain. If you have an old site or accounts (hosting, registrar), find the access. This often takes time, so sort it early.

6. Budget and timeline

Know roughly how much you want to invest and when to launch. This helps the developer propose the right solution — and give a fixed price and deadline.
