Start making plans for your website by completing our online form
The right results don’t happen by chance. They take planning and work. Improve your chances of success by setting out your hopes for your ideal website in advance.
Knowing exactly what’s needed means you’ll not only get precise quotations, you’ll also get like-for-like ones if you’re approaching more than one agency for a price.
Knowing objectives and the desired end result before you start means your agency knows what’s needed so you can focus on how to achieve that creatively.
Planning clear timelines in advance will help you get your website up and running by your deadline, allowing you to plan ahead for the all-important launch.
Preparation is the key
Don't just take our word for it...
Website planning is the very first stage of website design and development. Done right, by the end of this phase, you will have a strategy in place for a fully functioning online presence. It involves a great deal of thought and decision making as you begin to build a picture of what your new website will look like.
Without planning, you are hoping for the best. And that’s a risky business. Thinking through each detail, from functionality to content planning, will determine how user-friendly your website will be. Whilst this may sound a little daunting and time-consuming, it can actually save you time, down the line, when your website is up and running. Knowing what route your website will need to take, in advance, negates the need for ironing out issues once it’s live. And more importantly, once potential clients are using it. A good agency will have perfected the art of planning, knowing what questions to ask you (if your brief hasn’t covered them) and using your answers to build an outstanding website.
Benefits
There are so many advantages to planning your website before building it, including:
- Identified priorities with set expectations result in a high-quality website.
- A radically reduced risk of project failure. With 52% of clients switching to the competition if they have just one negative user experience, it’s crucial your website is user-friendly and fully functional.
- Carefully considered websites will boost search engine rankings as a good agency will provide a comprehensive search planning service.
- Allocated ‘creative time’ gives agency teams brainstorming spells so they can bring more creativity to your website.
- Saving time and money. An effective plan should reduce the to-ing and fro-ing that might otherwise occur following an agency presenting you with your website for review. In addition to this, agency quotes should be more accurate. And you can even expect your website to be published sooner.

We begin by making sure we understand your business goals. We keep these at the core of any developments we make.
By collecting strategic background information on your products, services, ideal client profiles, your closest competitors, your position in the market, your competitive advantage and USPs, we can build your business profile.
Next, we create your digital marketing strategy, looking at buying and selling cycles, marketing funnels and channels, content, processes and timelines. This may seem like a step for later in the journey but your marketing strategy can and does impact on how many pages you need, how your website should look and what functionality it should have.
If you are developing an existing website, we can check its functionality, addressing any issues so they are fixed ready for launch.
Our team of specialists look at the types of content to include – the subject matter and format. They’ll determine how the menus should look and how many levels of navigation are required. Next, they’ll address sales and marketing features, such as calls to action, contact forms and so on.
On presenting your website plan to you, we will work together to ensure everything is included. Once agreed, the plan will form the brief for your new website which is what will be needed for us, or any other website designer, to quote for the work required.
