Three Options for Starting a Charity Website
When starting your charity web project there are always three approaches to consider. Which are:
DIY - Do It Yourself
The most cost-effective option in terms of budget, but the most intensive option in terms of your own resources, there’s a lot to learn and many pitfalls to avoid.
If you’re looking for this approach, whether you’re starting from scratch, improving an existing site or looking to market your site, we have some great free tips and guidance to avoid the pitfalls
You’ll find all this really useful information in our Free Resources section
DWY - Done With You
Working closely with an agency, but agreeing to do some of the work yourself is a great way to get expert help where it’s needed, but keep the costs down.
At Urban Haze, this is our favourite option as we offer a handover and coaching service to empower clients to look after their own sites once the complex build is complete.

DFY - Done For You
Delegating all responsibility to a trusted agency is a great way to ensure your own resources are free to focus on what’s important to your organisation.
This requires building a trusting relationship with any agency which comes over time.
The best way to start learning to trust us is with a low-cost, low risk Discovery session.
