How to prepare a website brief

A short checklist from the Anix project for discussing a website before development begins.

Who will use the site?

Name the audience and the action they should be able to complete: contact you, find information or manage an account.

What needs to work?

List the pages, forms, languages and external systems. Separate what is needed for launch from later improvements.

How will you accept the result?

Agree on device sizes, working user journeys, access to source files, deployment and ongoing support. Search positions and revenue cannot be guaranteed by a website build.

Scope and pricing

An inquiry is a discussion request, not a purchase. The deliverables, price, deadlines and responsibilities must be agreed separately.
