WHEN YOU ARE READY TO BUILD

A smooth start.
Nothing important missed.

Your website setup checklist: the people, information and services we will gather together before launch.

You do not need to complete this before enquiring or exploring your makeover concept. Once your project is agreed, we will work through it together. Online saving is not available yet; use the printable workbook or copy the preparation list below. Start with what you know and leave anything uncertain for us to discuss.

Want a hand getting started?

Whether we introduced ourselves with a makeover concept or you found DigiThat yourself, you can ask us to prepare a draft checklist from your existing public website. You review the details, correct anything out of date and fill in the gaps.

We ask your permission before this assisted checklist review, including using AI to help organise the information. Choosing this is optional; you can still work through the checklist yourself.

Please allow up to 48 hours (usually much sooner) for us to gather the information and prepare your draft checklist. We’ll aim to get it back to you as soon as possible.

Gather what you can.
We will work through the rest.

You can review your summary and save a copy for your project. Your progress is saved privately to your account. Saving is not project approval. For confidential answers or documents, ask the DigiThat team to arrange a private handover before sending them. The PDF is an offline preparation option; it does not make an email attachment private.

Ask the DigiThat team to arrange a private handover

This opens an email request, not an upload. Do not attach your private answers yet. We will agree a suitable way to share them; there is no need to post the workbook unless you prefer that and arrange it with us.

Chat it through with the DigiThat team
