What a business website needs on day one
A website does not need dozens of pages to work. It needs to answer a visitor's first questions quickly and make the next step obvious.
Visitors arrive with simple questions. Who are you, what do you do, can I trust you, and how do I reach you. A good first website answers those clearly, on a phone, in seconds.
The essentials
- A clear headline that says what you do and for whom.
- Your services, described in plain language.
- Proof: real work, real clients, and real photographs.
- Contact details that are easy to tap on a phone, including WhatsApp.
- Fast loading, even on a slower connection.
Design for phones first
Most visitors will see your website on a phone. Design for the small screen first, then expand for larger ones.
Plan for updates
A website that never changes quickly looks abandoned. Decide who will update it, and make sure the structure makes that easy.
