5 things to Look for in a Web Design Company

web design companyChoosing a Web Design Company Can Be the Most Important Online Marketing Decision You Ever Make

With the rise in technology, everybody wants their business or company on the internet. It is a great fast and easy way to attract people to your company. A company wants to get the most out of their website. It represents everything they stand for. Often, it’s the first impression a client gets of a company.

So, it’s important that a web design company not only makes your website look good but creates a website so that it is easy to navigate, and filled with relevant information that your customers need. One should consider a few things before picking a company. I have compiled 5 crucial aspects for choosing a web design company:

1. How they talk to you.

Do you feel positive energy when you speak to the designers? First impressions are important. You want to feel that the designers care about you and are interested in your needs. Observe how they answer your questions. Do they give you direct straightforward answers? How fast they get back to you is an important indication. They should get back to you within 24 hours.

2. Take a look at all the services the web design company offers.

A website these days should be responsive and mobile, have optimized web pages, and blog capability.
But what else can your web designer offer? Look for companies that offer complete web marketing services including establishing social media presence, hooks from the site to social media, email marketing, blogging services, search engine optimization (SEO), site stats, Google AdWords or other advertising management, and web site hosting. They should provide you with a variety of services that will contribute to a strong website.

3. Client References

Whenever you hire someone, references are important. Do not be afraid to ask a company for people they work for. Talk to customers with a similar size or industry. Look for companies that provide client feedback. A respectable company should be proud of the work they produce. A good company will have project examples on their website that potential clients can take a look at.

4. Take a look at their website.

Practice what you preach. A web design company’s site should look just as good as their clients’ sites. It should look modern and updated. A look at their website will reflect what they can do for you. Look for updates on their websites. Consistent posting is a strong indication that they keep websites thriving.

5. Offers Maintenance

It is important to make your website feel alive by keeping it active. A good web design company will offer a maintenance package that includes keeping the site technology current, blogging services, collecting web site stats, creating landing pages, updating content (if you don’t’ want to) and more.

Parallax Scrolling Creates a 3-D Effect

Parallax scrolling is a technique where the background images move more slowly than text and images in the foreground. It creates an illusion of depth and immersion, creating a 3-D effect.

The technique has been popular in video games and has recently become a trend in web development, along with responsive and mobile sites.
