# Website development: choose the scope and the team Canonical page: https://globalleadindex.com/services/website-development/ Language: English. Site content date: 2026-09-12 > Choose a website scope around the customer decision and the handoff of a working, maintainable asset. Service fieldbook Choose a website scope around the customer decision and the handoff of a working, maintainable asset. [Compare relevant agencies](https://globalleadindex.com/services/website-development/#service-agencies) [Prepare the brief](https://globalleadindex.com/services/website-development/#brief) ## When this scope is useful The current page cannot explain the offer, support a key action or pass information reliably to the next system. If the page already works and only one hypothesis needs testing, a conversion experiment may be smaller than a rebuild. ## Questions that distinguish the team - Is a landing page or multi-page site needed? - Who supplies and approves content? - What source files, accounts and documentation will be handed over? ## Inputs before work starts Offer, user tasks, content inventory, brand assets, integration requirements and publishing owner. ## Three ways to scope the work These are buyer-side scope models, not an agency price list. Use the inputs, client responsibilities and exclusions below for each model. ### 01 / Site audit **Work:** Audit the decision journey, content and accessibility. **Handover:** Prioritized site brief. ### 02 / Landing page or website **Work:** Build a defined landing page or multi-page site with working forms and integrations. **Handover:** Source files, content, test evidence and account handover. ### 03 / Maintenance and development **Work:** Maintain content, dependencies and agreed improvements after handoff. **Handover:** Maintenance log and documented changes. ## Acceptance and shared responsibility Critical journeys work on mobile and keyboard; forms are tested; the client can update and deploy the handed-over source. ### Client responsibilities Approve content and ownership, provide integration access and nominate a maintenance owner. ### What needs separate agreement Copy production, paid tools, hosting and CRM redesign need explicit inclusion. Ask for a cost estimate based on the actual access, production volume, integrations and review cadence. A comparable price requires the same scope. ### Take this into the brief ```text Service: Website development Inputs: Offer, user tasks, content inventory, brand assets, integration requirements and publishing owner. Acceptance: Critical journeys work on mobile and keyboard; forms are tested; the client can update and deploy the handed-over source. Questions: Is a landing page or multi-page site needed? Who supplies and approves content? What source files, accounts and documentation will be handed over? ``` ## Common buying questions **Is a screenshot a finished website?** No. Inspect navigation, source handoff and actual user actions. **Must a landing page become a full site?** No. Scope follows the information and actions needed by the buyer. ## Evidence to examine Evidence review ## [One Click Contractor: traffic and MQLs move differently](https://globalleadindex.com/cases/occ-organic-mqls/) Different growth rates can be useful for diagnosing the journey, but they do not by themselves prove that a redesign caused the change. Inspect audience mix and qualification rules. Evidence review ## [United Elite Group: inspect the advertising-to-CRM handoff](https://globalleadindex.com/cases/united-elite-handoff/) Two buying paths should not share an unexplained lead-quality rule. A homeowner enquiry and a professional partnership require separate definitions and routing. ## Sources and review date Sources read on: 2026-09-11. A source review is not an audit of the agency’s systems. - [www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/quickref/ ↗](https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/quickref/) ## Related work [Conversion rate optimization](https://globalleadindex.com/services/conversion-rate-optimization/) [Marketing analytics](https://globalleadindex.com/services/marketing-analytics/) [CRM integration](https://globalleadindex.com/services/crm-integration/) ## Before choosing [How we assess evidence](https://globalleadindex.com/methodology/) [Compare agencies](https://globalleadindex.com/agencies/) [Traffic problem or landing-page problem?](https://globalleadindex.com/guides/traffic-or-landing-page/) ## Editorial selection for this scope Inclusion follows a public service description, not a service-specific score.
