Process & planning

How do you plan a website redesign?

Begin with measurable business goals, a content and URL inventory, audience pathways, a page map, technical requirements, and launch checks. For home-service sites, prioritizing calls, forms, service-area clarity, and trust information keeps the plan practical.

A practical way to approach it

Start with the business outcome, then verify the underlying technical details. For home-service websites, this usually means checking content and conversion pathways alongside URL management, tracking, local relevance, and the mobile experience.

Common mistake to avoid

Do not treat a redesign as isolated visual work. A new interface can create expensive follow-up work when pages, redirects, forms, analytics, or customer questions are left undocumented.

Next step

Use an audit to establish a shared view of the existing website, the highest-priority customer paths, and the items that need protection before a redesign begins.
