Do You Have A Brief To Work To?

Do you have a website brief to send to a few web designers in Durham?  A website brief can be very helpful, both for you and the various designers, if anything it is a starting point.

A website brief is not telling agencies what you want, but it is an outline of what you are looking for.

If anything it saves you having to repeat yourself multiple times when talking to different web design agencies in Durham.

Giving agencies a start point, as to what kind of website you want or need, here are a few things to consider:

  • Which web platform should you choose?
  • Who would create the website content?
  • Did you want videos on the website?
  • What about hosting?
  • Did you know the colour scheme?
  • What websites have you seen that you like?
  • What particular features did you need, such as a payment gateway?
  • How many pages did you want/need?
  • Did you have a budget to keep to?

There are of course going to be lots of other things to consider, but this should get you started.

How Much Does Web Design Cost?

This is a difficult question, since there are a number of factors that need to be considered:

  • How many pages would it have?
  • What platform would you use (WordPress, Joomla etc.)?
  • Did you require a payment gateway?
  • Do you use a freelancer or a large agency?
  • Would you provide the content or would the agency create it?
  • Do you require blogging or new content creation?

These are just some of the things that make websites range from £500 to £30,000.

Consider Your Marketing

Once it is created, this is when the hard work really starts, to get people to it and getting in touch with you.

There is a two pronged attack to this, in the short term and in the long term.

In the short term, PPC advertising is a wise move.  Although it can be expensive, it is quickly set up and can get you the right kind of visitors instantly.  We do advise talking with a few PPC companies in Durham about this, although some web designers do offer PPC along with their design services.

In the long term, SEO is advised, to ensure your website appears within the main results on search engines like Google and Bing.  SEO is quite a specialist form of marketing, and we do advise talking with SEO companies in Durham about this, as designers rarely offer this.

Have you considered using a social media influencer, to get you known to their thousands of followers?  Many people now have a full time career as a social media influencer.
