Building a website can feel overwhelming — especially when there’s endless advice telling you to focus on everything at once.
This checklist is designed to help you build your website the right way, in the right order, before you worry about design, branding, or launch.
Whether you’re starting from scratch or updating an existing site, this guide keeps you focused on what actually matters so your website supports your business, not complicates it.
What’s Inside
✔ A clear website foundations checklist
✔ Guidance on what to prioritize before design or launch
✔ Common mistakes small businesses make (and how to avoid them)
✔ Simple, practical reminders you can revisit as your business grows
Who This Is For
• Small business owners building their first website
• Entrepreneurs redesigning an existing site

You don’t need to complete everything at once.
Work through each section at your own pace and return to it as your business evolves.
