Website Design Ottawa
Ottawa seems to have more website design shops per capita than any other city. So how do you chose which website design firm in Ottawa to select? Here are a few things for you to consider:
- Does your website design Ottawa firm rent an office space? If yes, their prices will reflect that.
- Does your website design Ottawa firm have an in-house designer? We often receive calls from agencies who are looking to outsource their website design projects because they don't have an in-house expertise.
- Does your website design Ottawa firm use pre-made templates but charges you for custom design? It is very rare these days to create a website from scratch. Most website design firms use pre-made website templates which they modify to reflect a particular set of design requirements. But template modification and customization is a much simpler project than a custom website design from scratch. Find out what you are paying for.
- Can your website design Ottawa firm justify a custom design? How complicated and unique your requirements? There are hundreds of pre-made website templates with very professional designs, clean and attractive layouts that can be customized to achieve almost any desired look. Sufficient customization makes the original template virtually unrecognizable. Most website design firms have access to hundreds of great web templates.
- Does your website design Ottawa firm offer you a number of mockups? How many? At what additional price?
- Does your website design Ottawa firm offer support? For how long? At what cost? What's included?
- Does your website design Ottawa firm offer training? How many hours? What is covered?
- Does your website design Ottawa firm offer SEO services? What is the point in having a website if users can't find it?
- Does your website design Ottawa firm really specialize in SEO? Most website design firms claim that they specialize in SEO, whereas in reality their SEO expertise is often very limited. Make sure to ask for at least three SEO-ed website references. Check how competitive the keywords were. To find out the level of competition, a quick way is to query your keyword/keyword phrase in Google and record how many results pages this keyword generated (SERPs). The higher the number, the higher the competition for this keyword.
- Does your website design Ottawa firm charge you a monthly fee for SEO? For how long? Note that once SEO work is done, there is very little maintenance involved to maintain it, and it can't be undone, so by paying a monthly fee, you maybe overpaying by a large margin for what your SEO is worth. It is often better to pay a flat fee instead.
- Does your website design Ottawa company offer you a detailed quote? How specific is their quote? As a rule, the official quote represents the amount you'd expect to invest in the project. Exceptions are possible, of course, but they need to be discussed in advance. Don't be lured into a project by a low quite only to find out that the final costs will be much higher (beware of the danger of "per-hour" billing).
- Does your website design Ottawa firm offer customer testimonials with a full contact information of their clients? This is very important. Anyone can post a testimonial to their website. How true is it? A quick phone call can save you a lot of trouble.
- Does your website design Ottawa company offer additional services? Can you get a turn-key solution from them? Website design, professional SEO, content creation, support for PPC campaigns, link building, etc.
- How long has your website design Ottawa firm been in business?A few years is a must. For SEO, you would want 7 years of continuous expertise, and don't forget to check the number of websites optimized by this website design firm.
- Is your website design Ottawa firm a member of any professional association(s)? This shows how serious they are about their business. Anyone can register a website design agency, but it takes time and expertise to get recognized.
Those are a few factors that are important to consider in the process of selecting a website design firm.
