We
have built sites and have consulted companies and individuals
for retail sales, car dealerships, ministries, media, and a host
of other industries. You can be confident that we will develop
a top-notch web site that you will be proud of for your company
to enable you to compete online.
Today, most businesses want a website. Some already have one.
Others want one. They don't want to hire IT staff and probably
can't afford any. And in most cases, an in-house IT staff, especially
for your typical small business, just isn't necessary.
But, that
doesn't mean that you have to go without or will be forced to
use some cookie cutter website or a personal Frontpage experiment
gone awry. You can hire a web developer/designer to create a
professional website for you, set it up, then hand it over to
you for you to do what you want with it. But, how should you
go about finding someone to do this? What should you look for?
There are literally thousands of companies/individuals out there
offering to do your website. How do you pick from this large
group?
What
Do You Want?
The first
step is to decide exactly what you want on your website. This
is very important as it will determine what the requirements
are and, in turn, what skill set your web developer needs to
fulfill your needs. Here are some questions to ask of yourself:
* What kinds
of information do you want to have on your site? Approximately
how large do you envision the site (# of pages)?
* Will your
site require regular updates? Do you want to do these updates
yourself?
*
Will you be engaging in e-commerce on this website?
