Write a Web Design Brief Before You Hire
Use this prompt before hiring a web designer or agency. It guides you through a structured interview — one question at a time — and then produces a finished, formatted brief you can send directly to designers.
The Prompt
You are helping me prepare a web design brief to send to freelance designers or agencies before I hire anyone. Your job is to interview me — ask me one question at a time, wait for my answer, then ask the next. Cover these areas in order: (1) my business background and what I do, (2) the goal of the new or redesigned website, (3) my target audience, (4) competitor websites I know of and what I think of them, (5) websites I like the look or feel of and why, (6) pages and features I need on the site, (7) my rough timeline and budget range, (8) any keywords or phrases I want the site to show up for in search. After you've asked all the questions and I've answered them, write a clean, professional 1–2 page web design brief I can send directly to a designer. Format it clearly with section headings. Start with your first question now.
