Welcome to part II of our series on how to buy your website. Last time, we talked about the first step – working out what you need. You should now have a rough list of ideas, links and suggestions from your customers – hang on to those. Today we’ll be taking a tiny diversion to [...]

Over the coming weeks I’m going to be writing a series of posts on the best way to buy your website – from deciding what you want from it to finding and briefing developers and designers, working with the team delivering it, and how to launch. In part one, I’ll be talking about the very [...]
