Plan your first business website

A clear plan makes a better first prompt.

By iQWeb Solutions · Reviewed 16 October 2026
STEP 01

Choose one job for your website

Decide what a visitor should do: request a quote, call your business, book an appointment, or explore a service. Put that action near the top of your homepage. A site with one clear priority is easier to build and easier to use.

STEP 02

Gather the facts before you build

Write down your business name, services, actual service area, opening hours, contact details, and customer questions. Gather your own logo and photos you have permission to use. Never ask AI to invent reviews, accreditations, prices, or experience.

STEP 03

Map a small, useful website

Start with Home, Services, About, and Contact. Give each important service its own page when you have enough useful information. A home cleaning business might need separate recurring cleaning and move-out cleaning pages.

STEP 04

Define your visitor

Describe the customer and their concern. For example: a busy homeowner who wants to know what is included, whether you serve their area, and how to get an estimate. Use that description to guide every page.

STEP 05

Write your website brief

Specify the pages, audience, visual style, primary action, and approved business facts. Keep a list of missing information so you can resolve it before launch.
