What do you need from me to create a website for my business?

This is an excellent question because the most efficient path from the beginning of a website project to its launch is preparation. And while we can get started with nothing more than a desire to create a new website, many details you can consider (and decisions you can make in advance) will get the project across the finish line faster.

At the beginning of a website design project, several key preparations must be considered. These include outlining your business goals, gathering content (text, images, videos, etc.), organizing brand assets (logo, font choices, color preferences, and other visual elements that represent your brand identity), providing insights about your target audience and competitors, and specifying any functionality requirements.

We take a personalized approach to our client relationships, making you feel like a valued member of our team (and us a part of yours!) throughout the process. This close collaboration relies on open and effective communication, which is essential for meeting project deadlines and ensuring successful outcomes. Depending on your specific needs, other information or assets may be required, such as logos, domain access, branding guidelines, and more. We’re here to guide you through this process and create a website that aligns perfectly with your goals and vision.

Other frequently asked content questions

Do you use artificial intelligence (AI) to write content or blog posts?

We sometimes leverage AI-driven tools and technologies to assist in content creation. These tools can help streamline the content generation process, making it more efficient and enabling us to produce high-quality, relevant, and engaging content more effectively.

However, it’s important to note that while AI can aid in content creation, our team of skilled writers and editors also plays a crucial role in crafting and fine-tuning the content to ensure it aligns with your brand voice, goals, and target audience.

Our approach combines the benefits of AI with human expertise, recognizing that best practices from an SEO perspective often benefit from a human touch. This synergy ensures that your content meets your needs, is based on SEO best practices, and exceeds your expectations.

Our goal with every client we serve is to design a personalized digital marketing strategy that perfectly aligns with business objectives and delivers impressive results —increased website traffic, enhanced sales, or improved brand recognition.

Will my website meet accessibility standards?

It’s important to note that the accessibility landscape is dynamic, and there isn’t a one-size-fits-all set of standards. We’re committed to incorporating all the best practices for accessibility, such as maintaining proper contrast ratios, accurately labeling links, providing alt tags to ensure screen readers can seamlessly navigate your site, and much more.

We often employ tools like the Accessibe plugin to keep up with evolving standards. This ensures that your website complies with the latest accessibility guidelines and provides an inclusive online experience for all users. It also offers some legal protections. Make sure to ask us more about this when we begin your project!

What is the typical timeline for completing a website design project?

The time it takes to finish a website project is like a choose-your-own-adventure story. It all depends on a few things. For example, putting together a simple 10-page brochure site when the client already has the text ready is a smooth and quicker ride compared to tackling a full-blown e-commerce site for a company with tons of products that also wants a fresh new look.

A basic informational website with just the essentials might wrap up in about 2 to 4 months. On the other hand, if yours is a complex e-commerce website with custom features, the journey could stretch beyond six months. Remember, these are ballpark estimates, and the actual timeline can vary based on all the nitty-gritty details.

What sets the pace are things like how complicated the project is, what features you need, the size and skills of the team working on it, and how quickly you can provide content and feedback. To speed things up, keep the communication flowing, make sure the project scope is crystal clear, and get content and feedback to us pronto. We’re all about tailoring the timeline to fit your project’s unique needs and priorities, so let’s make it an adventure together!
