How many pages did you want (or need), and what about adding new website content?

Here are a few points to consider including in the website brief:

  • Did you know the colour scheme?
  • What websites have you seen that you like?
  • What particular features did you need, such as a payment gateway?
  • How many pages did you want/need?
  • Did you have a budget to keep to?
  • Which web platform should you choose?
  • Who would create the website content?
  • Did you want videos on the website?
  • What about hosting?
  • What about marketing?

There are of course lots of other things to consider, since websites can range in price from £500 to £50,000 depending on a wide range of factors.  The main one being, how long it takes to create the website and what features you want, if it is built on a standard web platform or whether it is built from scratch as a custom design.
