You're on a mission. You want to modernize your company's image. You want a user friendly website with more functionality and relevance that will have your customers coming back for more. You have a good idea of what you want, and you need someone to help you realize your goals. That's when you need to find a trusty web developer.Here are a few things to help you determine which website developer is right for you.

Check Out The Portfolio

The quickest way to get a feel for the type of projects a web developer specializes in is to check out their online portfolio. This is a great way to view their overall design style. Some developers are pretty versatile, design-wise. Visit the sites that they've done. Are there any interesting or useful functionalities that you would similarly like to incorporate into your web design?

Do You Like These People?

There's no rule that says you can't test the waters before committing. If you find a web developer that you think you could use, call them up. Email them. Ask them questions. You want a service that is prompt in answering your questions. Just as importantly, you want a developer that you get along with.

Interview Them

Interview your web developer to get any of your lingering thoughts answered. Make sure they are as experienced as you would like, and that they can deliver on your specific needs, well.

What Do The Others Say?

It's easy to get a feel for a website development company's reputation. It shows in how they treat you. It also shows in the quality and depth of their testimonials from previous customers (most of us can spot forced or fake testimonials a mile away). How do they stand up next to their peers? Are they a respected member of their industry?

It's All About Commitment

The last thing anyone wants is a service that won't even hold the door open for you on your way out. As long as you cherish your new website, you want your web developer to cherish you. Your relationship with your website developer is important, because your company will grow. You will want to make changes and improvements to your site as you expand.

Some Ways to Measure Their Level of Commitment:

Did they do their due diligence when researching your industry and understanding your specific needs?
Were they constantly trying to push needed functionality to a 2nd phase when the 1st hadn't even started yet?
Did they ask questions?
Did they provide a detailed quote which outlined the specifications for the project?
Were they thorough?
Every Bit Counts

I see it all the time. People who are not into web development think that all web developers are the same. The truth of the matter is the service you get can end up in failure, success, or anywhere in between.Every bit of observation on your part counts when assessing services. So venture out, and find yourself that special developer you can turn to for all your future website needs.
