7 Things to Remember When Hiring a Web Development Company
If you are an experienced professional in your field, you probably have been screwed multiple times by web building companies. Sometimes they disappear before a deadline; other times they fail to communicate the intricacies of the project.
Whether your budget is $2,000 or $100,000, if you put the project in the wrong hands – you will be the only loser in the game. These days, many newbies will drop in to your office with their flashy suits and offices – do not get allured to the charm, act without asking the right open-ended questions.
Here are a few things which you need to keep in mind when hiring website contractors:
1) Like all business-related investments, you are a building a website to further maximize your economic potential. Amateurs will beat around the bush; they will never be comfortable setting milestones based on solely “the amount of money the website brings in.”
2) Even a newbie knows that Google is a vital element of your digital marketing strategy; but nobody can promise you a money back guarantee for top search engine results. Hire a professional content writer to write well-optimized content.
3) Design is to a website what water is to a human being. But do not get too carried with the design. Work with the developer closely to give greater customer experience.
4) Why should you pay so much when you can easily get your hands on a template for $500-$5000? Simple, you need a solution catering to your needs; a solution which will augment your economic potential and maximize your SERP (search engine results page).
5) What is the call to action on your website? “Hello, sign up for a free newsletter?” This is simply a way to tell the customer that you are a website which loves spamming their inbox. CTA’s need to be contemplated upon thoroughly; keep it mind the four P’s: product, placement, price and place.
6) Make sure the website is user friendly and the audience doesn’t spend time locating the home button.
7) Social media integration is a must if you are looking for a sales machine not artwork. Social media will help you build and maintain an online community of potential and existing customers.
