Affordable Web Design

So there are so many Web Design Agencies, Web Development Agencies, and Design Agencies that offer Web Design, it can be difficult to know which was to turn.

Bare in mind that I am a Web Designer and work for a Web Design Agency, so I do of course believe Acknowledged Internet Solutions offers a great service at a extremely competitive price. However for the purposes of this article I will attempt top be neutral and offer some useful observations.

So how to choose the right agency or individual for you.

First thing to say is to 'shop around' as you would with your car insurance and anything else. Don't just go for the first company you find, there are many of us out there who offer a variety of services at a variety of prices.

It is often the case that a prospective customer will simple choose a web designer in their area, or the cheapest, or the one with flashiest home site.

First of all contact with your Web Design company will generally be conducted via email, phone and conventional mail so why choose the one in the same town if the agency the other side of the country suits your need better.

Secondly the thing you need to understand is with Web Design 'what you pay for is what you will get' in other words if you pick the cheapest your likely to get the poorest service or simply from a templated design they have used before. Good Agencies need to be competitive in their pricing particularly in the small to medium size business market, many offer set packages so you can see exactly what you get for what price.

A good rule of thumb for a static web site (no animation or online sales) is £70 per full size page this may or may not include you hosting/domain services, if the quotation you receive is considerably under this something is probably wrong.

You may also find it useful to contact a web quotation site, who will offer your project out to several Web Design Agencies for tender, saving you time surfing through Google's multitude of Web Design advertisers for your perfect match.

To conclude remember to 'shop around', generally good Web Site Design is affordable, but not cheap, make sure you look at the Agencies portfolio, and what aftercare they offer, some will just 'hit and run'.

Good Luck !!
