How to choose a web designer

Choosing a web designer can be a long and difficult task. You visit lots of websites, and you look for a good fit for your business but how do you know that you're making the right decision.

One of the best ways to find a web designer is via word of mouth. If you know someone who has had a good experience building a website and they will recommend their web designer to you, then this is the best place to start.

If you don't have a referral to a web designer or the web designer used by your referral is not a good fit for your business or budget what should you do?

You can generally assume that a web designer with plenty of genuine commercial clients in their portfolio (as opposed to student projects or personal projects) can complete websites to the satisfaction of their clients. But how do you know they will be responsive to your needs and time-frame?

You can read their client testimonials and as long as these testimonials relate to websites within the portfolio then you can be assured that the web designer can communicate well with their clients.
