When you’re ready to take your business online, you’ll need to hire a web designer to create a website that reflects your brand. But with so many web designers out there, how do you know which one is right for you? Web design is an investment for your business. Before you dive into it, consider these things to make sure you’re investing your hard-earned money in the right people!
The right people will help you grow your biz!
1. Style
Not all designers are the same. When choosing one, pick a designer that has the same style and tastes as yours. Someone you can vibe with and relate to.
2. Platform
Pick a designer that is in a platform that would benefit your business. They can assist and answer your questions and concerns about the platform. Take note that before you choose a platform also make sure to discuss it with someone who knows other systems so they can compare and recommend which one you need. Coaches and Beauty brands have different needs in terms of website functionality. The same is true with product-based and service-based businesses. While you may choose one platform over the other, you may also overlook areas of functionality. You may choose an easy-to-use website that lacks a certain functionality you require. So find someone who knows their stuff.
Tip: Choose a platform that will meet your business needs.
3. Availability
A good designer is an in-demand designer. Take into consideration your launch date and the date of their availability. The web designer you hire should be experienced, creative, and have a good understanding of your vision. They should also be able to work within your budget and timeline.
It always helps to book in advance!
4. Support
Their support usually doesn’t end after they’ve designed your website. Do they offer support to make everything easier for you?
What’s included in their service other than a good design?
5. Testimonials
While it’s good to have a website that’s designed by the best, it is also best to figure out if they’re someone you can work with.
