A written sitemap
If they cannot list pages, you do not have a proposal.
Ownership
Domain, hosting, repo. You should be able to leave.
Local vs freelance vs template mills
Price is not the only signal. Ask who answers when the form breaks.
Want this done without a 40-page proposal? Book a 20-minute fit call. We will tell you if our web design work fits, or if you should stay put.
What we will not do
Guarantee Google positions. Stuff keywords into a business name. Build doorway pages for towns you do not serve. Hide ownership of the domain or the files.
Next step
Send the live URL (or the idea) and the job you want more of. We will recommend a fixed next step in CAD — or an honest no.
