Your Project

When you ask us to quote on a project, or get involved in another way such as perhaps giving some advice on a particular topic, it always helps if you can provide some background. It's difficult for us to work in a vacuum. This is particularly true if you would like us to construct a proposal

If you can provide us with the following information, it will help us to do a better job. In some cases this information may be tentative or conditional on other factors (in the case of a brand new project, for instance); but nevertheless we would appreciate as much detail as possible. We need some background detail for optimal appreciation of the issues.

• business background
• project type
• your requirements
• timescale
• website URL (address)
• associated domain names, if any
• website history
• main web application name, eg CMS type
• main revenue source
• performance metrics 
  [how you measure site / business performance]
• current traffic - visitor numbers per day / month 
  [please ignore 'hits' or 'pageviews']
• current web host

Some idea of budgetary constraints and/or costs is helpful - for example, what are your current costs?
