Four steps, and what each one asks of you.
No project starts with a quote. It starts with a look at what you have, because a price given before that is a guess.
Audit
You send the address and what you want to achieve. We crawl the site the way a search engine does, open it on a phone, and look at the parts that carry the money: the catalogue, the forms, the checkout.
What comes back is a short list of what actually matters, in order, with the reason attached to each. Not two hundred rows from a tool.
What we need from you: the address, and access to the hosting or platform if the site is not public.
Plan
The findings turn into a scope: which pages, which features, in which order, and what each milestone contains. Anything outside it is named as outside it, so a quote does not quietly grow.
You approve the scope before anything is built. This is the cheapest point to change your mind, and we would rather you used it.
What we need from you: decisions. Which parts you want to edit yourself, what the site must do, and what can wait.
Build
Work happens on a staging copy with its own address, which you can open at any time. Each milestone ends with something you can click through rather than a status update.
Structured data, metadata and speed are part of the milestone they belong to, not a pass at the end when the budget is gone.
What we need from you: content, access to the systems being connected, and a look at each milestone.
Launch & care
Launch is a checklist, not an event: redirects in place, certificates valid, analytics and search console reading the new site, caches cleared, the old version reachable until the new one is proven.
Then the site is crawled again and compared against the map. What moved gets fixed while everyone still remembers why.
What we need from you: a launch window that suits your business, and the registrar and hosting access for the switch.
What you can expect either way
- A written scope before any code, so nobody is guessing what was included
- A staging link at every milestone, not a status email
- Your own hosting and accounts, with the code handed over at the end
- An honest no when a project does not need what you asked for
