4 tips when working with a website design company
- 1. 4 Tips When Working With a Website Design Company A website design company can create your dream site or it can hand you a nightmare. That is why it is important that you work well with the company to realise your goal. While some companies deliver more than what they promise, others need some extra help to excel. But regardless of which type of company you work with, these four tips will surely help.
- 2. No. 1: Base the design on your target market. Before you even approach a website development company, make sure you've already done some research regarding your target market. Are they men or women? Young or old? What's their favourite colour? What places do they visit often? Are they married? Do they have kids? The answers to these questions will give you an idea on what design and colour palette will suit your niche. Submit your answers to your chosen website design company and work out a template that suits your target market.
- 3. No. 2: Always check site design in other browsers. It doesn't matter what your personal favourite browser is. You should ask the company to check the design in all browsers to make sure your site looks good in all of them. What might look perfect in one browser might look "hacked" in another. If the website development company is unable to adjust the design to suit all browsers, focus on the one most used by your target market. Again, research is needed here.
- 4. No. 3: Don't forget SEO. There's a reason why search engine optimisation companies are still making money today despite come claims that social media, video, or something else is the future of the Internet. It's because SEO is the backbone of the Internet. Keywords. Tags. Descriptions. Ask your website design company to consider these matters when creating your site. Your main pages should have unique keywords. Always find a way to include meta tags without compromising design.
- 5. No. 4: Track your progress through a timeline and open communication. Working with a website design company that does not respond to your queries is frustrating. So, before the project starts, get all the contact information you can get from them. This way, there'll be no excuse for unanswered calls. Then, set work out a timeline with them. It should include a target date for the end goal and target dates for mini goals as well. Cross out goals as they are accomplished. This way, the project is more likely to be accomplished on time.
