Website Design Contract

A website design contract is the agreement that defines the business relationship between a client and the person or studio building the site. It typically addresses the work to be delivered, payment schedule, revision terms, responsibilities, timelines, intellectual property, and what happens if the project changes or ends. A cleaning company commissioning a new website should know who supplies the service descriptions and photographs, who controls the domain, and what support is included after launch. Unlike a scope of work, which concentrates on deliverables, the contract also addresses broader commercial and legal terms. Its wording should reflect the actual project and be reviewed appropriately; a generic template is not a substitute for professional legal advice.
