Slync planning guide

How should you plan a business website?

Start with the task visitors need to complete: understand a service, request a quote, buy a product or use a tool. Choose the content, editing workflow and technical approach around that task, then test the full journey on a real phone before launch.

Do you need a CMS or a custom application?

A content-led site benefits from an editing workflow that staff can use independently. Accounts, permissions and complex transactions need application design. Write down who changes content and how often before choosing a stack.

How should you assess website performance?

Measure a representative landing page and the conversion journey, including images, forms and third-party scripts. Use lab checks during development and real-user data after launch. Compare the same page and conditions when evaluating a change.

Before you start

  • Name one primary visitor action for each important page.
  • Test navigation, keyboard access, forms and confirmation messages.
  • Record page speed, device and network conditions before and after changes.
  • Assign ownership for content updates, backups and broken links.
