Unfortunately, people who call themselves "web
designers" are a dime a dozen. The field of web design
is a totally unregulated profession so it can be
difficult to determine if someone is just a good "sales
person" or if they really are a good professional web
designer.
One way to help you make a decision whether they are a
good web designer is by viewing a LOT of examples of
their work, and a LOT of client feedback and
testimonials. Don't just take their word for it that
they are the greatest!
What About My Nephew, or a
Friend Who Says They Can Make Me a Website or Free
Do-It-Yourself Template Websites?
Do you have time to try to figure out the limitations of
a template website?
Do you feel you know how to optimize it well for the
search engines?
Do you really feel that your good friend who sort of
knows how, or a teenage nephew is the right person to
create one of your most valuable marketing tools?
Do you want to end up with a web designer who only gives
you a so-so website then charges you an extra monthly
fee to "search engine optimize"?
Do you want to have someone design your website who only
"does websites on the side"?
Do you want to work with an anonymous web designer that
you can't humanize? (So many web designers don't
identify themselves!)
Does an offer of a 5 page website for $99 sound
realistic to be able to get a GOOD/EFFECTIVE website?
Do you want to risk working with a web designer who
isn't even in this country?
Don't settle for a web designer who remains in anonymous
or even semi-anonymous obscurity.
Check your potential web designer's body of web work
Check your potential web designer's client testimonials
Find out if the potential web designer is going to
sub-contract out your project so you can check the
sub-contractor's work and reputation
There's a lot more to creating a good website for you
than the look of it. If it's not properly optimized,
it's not going to be found!
I am a web designer who will make your custom website
PLUS enrich the site with all of the elements needed to
help ensure you good search engine rankings and it's all
included in my reasonable web design fees!
You need a website that is professional looking and one
that will "work" for you! There's so much more to
creating a good website than meets the eye. I've met
many new clients who previously wasted years of valuable
marketing time by not knowing their own poorly-designed,
under-optimized template website was doing them no good
and losing sales. I have more than forty years marketing
experience, education and skills.
Do you want your website to look professionally
designed?
Do you want your website to be a custom fit to your
services or products?
Do you want your website to be found on the internet?
Do you want your website to function properly without
any bugs?
Do you have time to try to figure out how to use a
template website?
Do you know a lot about business marketing in general?
What to Look for in a Web
Designer
It is important to work with someone you feel
comfortable communicating with, because designing your
website needs to be a collaborative effort. It's better
to work with a web designer who is not a mysterious
unknown. No one wants a web designer who talks down to
them, acts temperamental, disappears for long periods of
time, and takes FOREVER to finish a website!!
Web Designer or So-Called
"Full Service" Company?
There are a lot of "web optimizing" companies, (and
computer repair guys) who "claim" to offer web design,
but they are not web designers, and are often
sub-contracting to various sources that you'll never
know about. That can be very detrimental to you getting
a good website.
Sure, they can throw together an un-optimized website,
THEN they charge you monthly to "keep you up in the
search engines". . . so it is better to work with
someone who is in the web design business, who includes
good optimization in your design and doesn't try to sell
you on a "search engine optimization service, too.
If your website is made correctly... you won't need to
pay extra fees to anyone.
With LadyWebPro web designs, the search engine
optimization is all included with your custom web
design.
LadyWebPro.com is a well-established business with
incredible references. You can actually speak with any
my clients to ask for feedback on their experience
working with me.
I always share my creative design and marketing ideas,
make suggestions for effective domain names, and help
you develop your vision (or I come up with one for you
if you are without a clear idea).
