Your website is your shop window, so you need it to reflect your brand, product or services. For this reason, choosing the right web designer is important.
We do advise you choosing a web designer that is experienced. Are they a new agency, or are they well established with many years of experience.
Do they know your industry sector?
We feel that knowledge is power, if they know your industry, they will have a better idea of what designs will work well for you. They should know your competitors and how they are performing.
All creative companies are different
Not all websites are the same, there are different web platforms and benefits for each. Platforms like WordPress, Joomla are popular and are very different. There are also bespoke platforms that are created outside of standard web platforms.
It is therefore wise to know what web platform will suit your business and support what it is that you do as a business.
Getting advise from a few agencies is wise.
The benefit of using someone local is that you can have a face to face meeting with them.
This gives you the chance to discuss what sort would suit you best.
Many web agencies make claims such as ‘we are the UK’s leading web designer’ or ‘we are highly recommended’. A meeting gives you a chance to discuss these to see if they are genuine or just marketing.
Before talking to a web designer in Norfolk, here are a few things to consider:
These are just a few of the many things you need to consider along with the most obvious just below!
Once your website is live, this is where the hard work starts, by getting lots of visitors to your website.
This is sometimes carried out by web designers, but not all the time. If the web designer has digital marketing resources, then they can assist, but again you do need to compare quotes.
This is something you do need to consider before choosing the agency, whether you want to deal with two different agencies or just one?
Marketing of your website is very important, what is the point in having a shop without customers? The same is said of a website without traffic coming to it.
In the short term, advertising is suggested (PPC or pay per click) on the main search engines like Google.
PPC is quite specialist, we can get you quotes from PPC agencies in Norfolk if you like.
In the long term, getting organic visitors is needed rather than paying for each one. This is called SEO or search engine optimisation. This is very specialist, for which talking with local experts is advised.
Social media plays an important part of our society now, and as far as your website is concerned, you need to have a ‘social media footprint’.
Search engines do factor in your ‘social signals’ to your organic ranking, known as SEO.
Being visible on one or all of the different platforms is good, but not all social media platforms are suited to all products. Some are, but on the most part, choosing the right platform is important.
It is worth discussing social media at a meeting with a few web designers in Norfolk.
Choosing a marketing company is always going to be a challenge.
All marketing agencies in Norfolk are independent and all set their own rates.
Of course the size of website you need will determine the price you are charged, but this charge will vary from agency to agency. For this reason, we do advise getting a few quotes from a few local web design agencies in Norfolk.
We do not advise choosing the cheapest quote, as you would with car insurance. Marketing is unique, and cannot be based on cost alone. You do not get what you pay for, selecting an agency needs to be done based on the above.
We want to help you find the ‘right’ agency for your business.
