Client Requirements Questionnaire

Client Requirements Questionnaire For Blue Mnts. East Timor Sisters

As this site is non-commercial and I am doing it as a volunteer I have not included certain questions that would normally be asked of a client.
However, I think it a good practice even for a volunteer to have the requirements and agreement for doing the site done in a professional manner. I believe that misunderstandings can lead to bad feelings later on if the work is not what the client had in mind or what the volunteer understands as the brief for the project. Good communication to begin with should solve this.


  • Name of site

  • Domain name required.

  • Hosting requirements.
Costing of the above to be provided.

  • Purpose of the site.

  • Audience and reason for site

  • Is there a specific date for completion?

  • Are there any specific graphic content requirements?

  • Do you have ideas as to the look and feel of the site?


  • Are there any long term plans for expanding the site?

  • Will any on-going maintenance be required?

  • Will content text be supplied by client


Eg. Word doc. PDF

  • Images required. Will a photo gallery be needed?
