Custom website design
"Using a professional website designer is a waste of money!" Why not save a few dollars and design your website? There are so many free website builders on the web today, that people ask why they should bother using a professional website designer.
Let's face it, you're in business to make money, right? So you need to put your best foot forward. Off the web and on it. That means putting resources into a website is just like business cards, advertising, and brochures. Benjamin Franklin once said, "The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten."
We design individually for each client
No cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all template website designs. Not a case of dropping in a few pictures and a bit of text and you're done! You want and, frankly, need to stand out from your competition. That alone is a great reason for hiring a professional website designer.
Points to ponder
- Your website is your storefront, sales team, and CSR department on the web.
- Do you have the skills to not only develop the site but keep it up to date?
- Do you know how to develop a site that can be viewed on a myriad of devices?
- Do you have the skills and time for ongoing SEO practices such as analysis, visitor tracking, and back-link building?
- Did you start your business to pursue that business or write websites?
Time
Building and maintaining a website, and structuring ongoing Search Engine Optimization takes time, lots of time. It also requires knowledge of, at least, the basics of good website design principles. So let's look at some areas that need consideration when designing your site:
- What's its purpose.. an online brochure, lead generator, e-commerce, backup, and support?
- Who is your target? Existing customers, new customers, old, young, middle-aged, women, men?
- What colors and styles does your company already have and what does this say about you?
- Content, content, and more content. There's a saying, "Content is King!" Content can be images, videos, and/or text.
- Who will be responsible for maintaining and updating your content? You or us?

Reporting - Knowing where you're going
Knowledge is power. With knowledge or data, you can make wise, strategic, and informed business decisions about the direction of your business. Just like you shouldn't make financial decisions without talking with your CPA or bookkeeper, you shouldn't make decisions about your web presence without knowing the facts.
- How much traffic do I get every month?
- Where does that traffic come from?
- What does that traffic do on my site - what pages do they visit, how long do they stay?
- Do they hit my site only to navigate away just as quickly?
- Do they interact with the site?
- Where am I ranking in the SERPS (Search Engine Ranking Pages)?
- Is that ranking better or worse than last month, last year?
Without this information, you cannot know exactly how your website is performing, and, therefore, what changes may, or may not be, required.
To assist you, and us, about the best direction for your business website, we give all clients a traffic data report and a ranking report every month. They're free as part of every web design and development package we offer.
