What to prepare before building a website

Five things that make a website project faster, cheaper and closer to what you imagined.

1. One clear goal

Decide the single most important thing visitors should do: order, call, book, or sign up. Every page is then built around that action.

Collect your logo, photos, product or service list, prices and contact details. Content is usually the slowest part of any project.

Note two or three websites you like and why — the colours, the layout, how easy they are on a phone. It saves many rounds of changes.

If you sell online, decide how customers pay (bKash, Nagad, cards, cash on delivery) and who delivers. These shape the checkout.

Decide who will add products, change prices and answer messages after launch, so the admin panel is built for them.
