These days there a lot of website
design companies around - some highly professional and others not so. As it
is a fairly new industry with low start up costs and no qualifications
"needed" to get into, many people think it is a great industry to
jump into so that they can make some easy cash. These people have a very
negative impact on both consumers (who get a low quality service) and on the
professionals already established in the industry. A good website design
company will have highly qualified designers and developers that will help you
every step of the way. So how do you go about finding the best website design
company for you? Let me show you a few good methods!
Look at the website
designers portfolio. Every website design company worth its weight will
have an in depth portfolio page of at least 20 jobs. If you like the kind of
work they have produced, and then there is a good chance that they will do a
good job for you. Have a look for individuality in their designs - you do not
want a website that will look the same as every other site out there. See if
they have the ability to make your site unique for your requirements and
circumstances. Finally, make sure these design are for real companies and not
just fake designs stolen from elsewhere and put into a portfolio. Go to that
client’s website and take a look around. If you can't get to the website, then
search for that company in Google. If you can't get to them in Google, then it
is probably fake. When you do find the company, consider emailing them to ask
about their experience with the company.
Go to a few website design
company review sites. There are plenty of review sites where potential
customers like yourself can go and read all the feedback on web design
companies that are either in your budget or near your location. Using this
information in the right way can help you pick the best
website design company for you. Look at the reviews and take into account
the amount of positive reviews a company has and judge that against the negative
feedback left. If a company has a lot of positive feedback and little to no
negative, you are most likely looking at a decent company.
You will also want to look at companies who have a fairly large
number of reviews from a diverse client base (clients working in different
sectors, and especially clients working in similar sectors to yourself). There
are negatives with review sites though, that you should be aware of. Do not
always trust the reviews - some companies put reviews on from either fake companies,
or write their clients testimonials for them. If you see anything suspicious
then beware. Also, if a company has fantastic reviews that do not make them the
company for you, that just makes them a best web design
company. For example if they do websites for a very cheap cost and have
great customer feedback, the feedback will be relative to the price the person
paid, not necessarily the quality of the website.
