Having a responsive website is A MUST in today’s competitive business world. But venturing into your first web design company selection can be one frustrating proposition. There are so many service providers out there -all claiming to be reliable and quality-proven. This makes it all the more confusing and inconclusive- but not IMPOSSIBLE!

To help you with your selection, here are few reference tips and investigation questions to ask your shortlisted options, prior to finalising.

Beginning With The TIPS:

• Figuring Out Your Website Goals And Requirements:-

Preparation is vital. And when planning to design your business site, the first thing is to figure out your site goals and requirements.

Here’s An Indication Of What You Want In Your Site:-

• It should generate business leads consistently.
• It should integrate CRM, HotSpot, Salesforce and other CRM software.
• It must be integrated with marketing platforms such as Emma, MailChimp and Constant Contact.
• Should allow the end-users to fill up forms directly from the site itself.
• Should collect payments, donations, recurring subscription or donations.

What Else?

• It should be user-friendly in navigation.
• Should have eCommerce functionality.
• And should have an SSL certificate and HTTPs protocols.

So, take your time to decide and then check with your service provider whether they will be able to meet all your customised requirements.

• Determining The Precise Website Compatibility:-

When you opt for a web design/SEO company in Melbourne; you should make an effort to dig up as much info as you can about them. No one likes to move from one service provider to another. It is very costly and time-consuming.

So, when choosing your options and checking their work efficacy and versatility; you need to check their value-addition to your business website, their working approach and also how they respond to their staff and their clients.

Along with proficiency and credibility, also comes compatibility- particularly when you plan to make them your long-term one-stop service provider.

• Reviewing Company Culture, Portfolios & Overall Experience:-

Three key things that you must check in your chosen website design service provider are- The overall experience, company culture and their portfolios.

Experience:-

Check how long have they been around the industry. And do they have a good track record in designing and developing sites that produce results or consists of features that not many have.

Portfolios:-

Checking the portfolio is one smart way to determine their capabilities and skills. Plus, it also presents a clear picture of their industry-experience, complicated coding expertise, their design creativity and more.

Do check:-

• Can they develop mobile-friendly websites?
• Do they adhere to the latest site design trends?
• Do their designed sites appear similar or are their differentiating qualities?
• Are all those sites still producing the goods for their respective business owners?

The Agency Culture:-

This will let you know about the company’s working style and personality.

You should check:

• Their social media pages and their end-user response.
• See if they are associated with any local community.
• And, do they showcase their team’s expertise, skills and versatility.

• Considering All Possible Cost Factors:-

Website design and development costs go way beyond the initial design and development expenses. You also need to check the other ongoing charges and fees that ought to be understood prior to finalising any contract.

• Hosting Cost:- Every site design company charges for site hosting. But, instead of getting excited; you should look to pay for site uptime. The reason being you want your business site to be online and visible 24*7- not some handful of hours or months. So, better to discuss with your chosen service provider prior to making any choices.
• On-Going Support Cost:- Most companies include a specific level of support in their offered hosting plans. Others charge time and resources for making any changes. One way to determine your cost is to figure out what changes you want to make in your site.

Every company will offer you packages at different rates. And the only way to plan a budget is to do some prior homework. That will help you mitigate some site designing and development costs.

Questions You Need To Ask Your Chosen Provider:-

• How Many Sites Have You Developed For SEO-oriented Companies?

This is another important question that you should ask your SEO-oriented service provider. This is because you want a company that has worked in a variety of industries and knows the ins and outs of what works and what doesn’t.

One good way is visiting the site and checking out examples of their work and the companies they have worked during till date.
