Most website delays are waiting on content, not code. Gather these items up front and your project will move faster and cost less.
When a website project runs late, it's rarely because the developers were slow. It's usually because the text, photos or a decision are still sitting with the client. A bit of preparation makes a big difference.
Write down what the site must achieve (more calls, bookings, quote requests), who it's for, and what a good month looks like. Everything else is easier to decide once this is clear.
List the pages you think you need. Draft the text, even roughly, for the main ones. Gather service descriptions, prices if you show them, team bios, FAQs and any case studies you have permission to share.
Logo files in vector format if you have them, brand colours and fonts, and the best photos you own. Note sites you like, and sites you don't, and why.
Domain registrar, current hosting, Google Analytics and Search Console, Google Business Profile, email provider and social accounts. Make sure you, not a former supplier, own these.
