Brief

What to send before a website build.

A good brief does not need to be long. It needs enough signal to choose the right website path and avoid guessing.

Send a brief

Decision rhythm

A useful brief separates diagnosis, proof and launch.

This keeps the next move practical: review the current site, collect real details, or lock the launch guide before design starts.

Diagnosis

If there is a live site, identify what blocks trust before defining the new page plan.

Trust

Gather examples, reviews, screenshots and service details that can be shown publicly.

Launch

Separate page decisions from the final checks for forms, mobile flow, search visibility and contact tracking.

Business and offer

Business name, main services, target audience, location or market and what the site needs to make clear.

Current site

Current URL if one exists, what should stay, what feels dated and what is causing friction.

Goal and deadline

Whether this is a fast launch, search-page build, refresh, campaign page, bilingual site, or larger growth website.

Pages and languages

Needed pages, English and Hebrew requirements, service areas, city pages and any content that already exists.

Real material

Logo, photos, screenshots, examples, client types, testimonials, results, or anything real that can support trust.

Contact path

Preferred form fields, booking links, email address, thank-you flow and what should happen after a lead submits.

FAQ

Questions worth answering before the build.

Do I need all of this before contacting you?

No. Send what you have. The brief simply helps decide the first direction faster.

Can you work from an existing website?

Yes. A current site is useful even if it needs major changes because it shows services, tone and gaps.

Should I send competitor sites?

Yes, if they clarify the market or useful features. The goal is not to copy them, but to understand expectations.

What should not be invented?

Testimonials, client names, measurable results and screenshots should only be used when they are real and approved.
