- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Before you approach web designers and developers, define exactly what you need. Do you need someone to design your site, develop it, or both? The difference is subtle but significant. Web designers create the visual look-and-feel of your websiteÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂwhat appears to the naked eye. Web professionals refer to this as the front end design. Web developers make the site work; they call this the back end or programming of the site. The key is that many web designers are not developers, and vice versa. It is not uncommon for one person (a designer) to lay out the site in something like Illustrator or Photoshop, then pass along to someone else (a developer) to slice-and-dice the design and convert it into a working website. If you hire a full-service web design firm, of course you should expect them to be able to handle both ends of the spectrum. However, buyer beware: not all web design firms are created equal! Some are better at the design end, and some are more technically proficient. You can often tell the difference by looking at their online portfolio. Does what you see blow you away visually, or are you more impressed with how their sites work in terms of ease of use, navigation and other key functionality?
