Business Website is no different from your front desk support. Customers want them elegant, responsive, knowledgeable, and most importantly direct them to make a buying decision. 

A Website is not just how it looks to an eye, but it must be user friendly and informational. No Customers like to be on a website forever. The average time spent on a website is 15 seconds, You heard it right? 15 seconds is the time we get to convince a visitor to take action.

So now you know how important is a website design for business.

Now, the challenge, most businesses come across is how to choose an affordable website design company.

Most of the time, they fall in the wrong hands with their engaging sales pitch. If you have gone through such an experience or looking to avoid them, keep reading.

The following are the 5 most important things that should influence your decision before choosing an affordable website design company.

1) Does the company show interest in your Business objective, Product/Services, and Target Audience before Designing your website?

Building a website without knowing the Business objective is like producing a car without an engine. Though the car looks appealing and luxurious, the purpose is not achieved, and Website Visitors will not find value. A Website Design Agency needs to understand the business to set up the right call to action.

If a Small Business Website Design Agency neglects to do their initial study about your business, competition, and audience, the website they offer will drop its purpose.

You can read about the Website Design Agency from the initial questions they ask about your firm.

2) Does the company offer personalized website development solutions?

We are sure we do not want our home to look like our neighbors until your neighbor owns a bungalow.

Likewise, it is important, your website is unique and built using the same template as your competitor. 

To avoid getting the same template as many others for your business, make sure you request for their website portfolio and see if they are all of different designs or the same design.

The Website Design Company should be professional enough to provide you with interesting ideas that will more accelerate your business. 

3) Does the company provide responsive websites?

The website should not only look good but be operative. Always look for the websites they developed for the loading speed and its responsiveness on Desktop and Mobile.

As more and more users use their mobile phones over the desktop or other devices to access a website, our Business website is essential to be responsive as well.

In recent times, it is equally relevant to check for browser compatibility. A website that looks good in Google chrome can look different in Mozilla Firefox.

4) Does the company support you after the project completion?

One thing to keep in mind is that it is obvious for a website or any product for that matter can create issues within a month after website development.  

So always find a website design agency that could assure you a minimum 30 days support if any issues noticed.

5) Does the company give you ownership of your website?

As your website is a marketing tool, you must constantly edit or update your website to be successful. If your website design agency does not give you access, it could affect you in many ways. 

In most cases, you must pay more to the website design agency to make the changes or buy additional charges to get access to your own website

The worst case is that you must develop a new website.

Business owners should be double-checked with the website design agency if you will be given full access to the content, images, pages, and posts and allow you to make changes on a frequent basis without the need to pay them an hourly fee.

If there is a charge, please consider you have not found a professional

In Conclusion, I advise you to do the required investigation before you settle on any website designers for small business for your project.
