How to choose a dedicated designer to design you website? by Hanene Mourey

You can choose one or more web designer who works exclusively for you on your projects. Geographical or time zone boundaries do not affect the progress and implementation of your project.

Describe Your Vision * what kinds of information do you want on the site? Will your site require regular updates? Would you like to make changes yourself? * Will you be selling something? * Will you need a database to store and retrieve information? * Do you want to rely on search engines to send more traffic to your site? * What is your budget?

Do Your Homework Check their portfolio and see if the style is right for you. If you see sites that you really like, make sure the employee/s who built those sites are still employed and can work on your site. What technologies does the designer use? Will this technology work for you and your viewers? Ideally, you want your site to work independent of the user's operating system and browser.

Patience you must be mentioned with the quote, make sure you know how long you're going to have to sit and wait in anticipation of your new custom web design. It's important to be flexible with time.

Pricing and Guarantees Get in touch with the web design companies concerned, explain your project, and ask for an exact price quote. Make sure your designer can outline all costing and the work in detail for you.

Look for, and ask about a guarantee of work. Stated policies such as, "If you are not 100% satisfied, we will give you your money back," will give you a clear idea of the designers' confidence that they can meet your needs. Guarantees are important: there's nothing worse than paying big bucks for a site you're embarrassed to show your clients or customers.

Guarantees show potential clients that the company cares about making them happy and is doing its best to ensure your project's success.

Last Steps

If the site offers testimonials, read them to see what past clients had to say about the work they received.

Follow these steps and you should increase your chances of successfully finding and hiring a Web designer or developer who meets your needs and those of your project.
