Web design in Glen Ellyn by Dynamic Global Marketing helps local businesses turn visitors into calls and form leads. Use this starter checklist to plan pages, write clear copy, improve usability, and launch a fast, trustworthy site that fits Glen Ellyn buyers.

Who This Is For

• Local service providers, clinics, trades, legal, and retailers that need a clean, modern site.
• Teams launching a new site or redesign and want a practical, non-technical checklist.
• Owners who care about speed, clarity, accessibility, and measurable results.

1) Goals & Audience

• Primary goal: calls or form submissions (define what counts as a lead).
• Audience basics: top neighborhoods/ZIPs, common questions, decision blockers.
• Proof: reviews, certifications, awards—place near CTAs.

2) Site Structure & Pages

• Core pages: Home · Services (1 page per service) · About · Reviews · FAQs · Contact.
• Navigation: 5–7 items max; add footer links (Contact, Privacy, Terms).
• Header CTA: phone + button (“Get a Quote”) visible on every page.

3) Content & Messaging

• Service clarity: what you do, who you help, expected outcomes, next steps.
• FAQs: price ranges, timeframes, service areas, guarantees.
• Calls-to-action: phone, form, and simple “What happens next?” explainer.

4) UX & Accessibility

• Readable layout: short paragraphs, bullet lists, descriptive headings (H1–H3).
• Contrast & size: accessible color contrast; body text ≥16px; clear focus states.
• Forms: labeled fields, minimal inputs, mobile-friendly keyboard types.

5) Performance & Core Web Vitals

• Images: compress, modern formats, specify width/height, lazy-load below the fold.
• Code: defer non-critical scripts; inline critical CSS; trim heavy libraries.
• Fonts: system or limited web fonts; preload primary; avoid layout shifts.

6) SEO Essentials

• On-page: unique title tags and meta descriptions; one H1 per page; meaningful H2/H3.
• Internal clarity: link between related services and contact; descriptive anchor text.
• Local signals: display consistent NAP in footer and Contact page.

7) Tracking & Launch

• Set up tracking: verify calls and forms; test notifications and phone routing.
• Pre-launch QA: device testing (mobile/desktop), broken links, 404s, favicon, sitemap.
• Post-launch: watch page speed, top pages, and conversions; fix issues fast.
