A web development enquiry should explain what visitors need to do and what your organisation needs to manage. New pages, a redesign and changes to an existing website have different risks. Agree the scope, content responsibilities and handover before comparing proposals based only on appearance.
List important visitor journeys, existing integrations and who controls the domain and hosting. Ask about accessibility, mobile testing and ownership of source files. Keep payment or account credentials out of an initial enquiry and agree a safe access process.

Ask how the developer will handle mobile layouts, accessible navigation and contact forms. Agree content responsibilities and a handover process so the website remains manageable after launch.
