In this article, I’ll cover a topic that comes up often when businesses decide to invest in their digital presence. It is about whether or not you need a website design agency to create or redesign your website Cheap VPS Hosting.
Why use a Dallas Web Design when I could do it myself?
The many website building platforms as well as all the people who “know a little about it” can make it seem like building a website is easy to do yourself. So, is it really worth hiring the Dallas Web Design services of an agency?
My team and I support many companies of all sizes in the design or redesign of their website. The purpose of this article is not to preach for my parish but rather to share my experience with you in order to help you see it more clearly.
I’ll cover a set of questions you should ask yourself before determining who will be in charge of your website design. You will see that the answers are not always as simple as they seem at first glance.
How big is your project?
The first thing to do is to clearly identify your need. The purpose of your website or web page is really going to determine whether or not you need a team of professionals to support you.
Some projects can be managed very well in-house with tools that are easy to use even for those who are less familiar with it. Other projects require multiple skills that are rare to find in a single professional, whether they have experience or not. I will go around the different types of projects to guide you.
Create a simple landing page/landing page
If you want to create a single-page site, quickly, to fill an urgent need or simply to ensure a minimal online presence, there is no need to go through a Dallas Web Design agency.
Indeed, there are platforms for creating “landing pages” such as Unbounce or Instapage, sufficiently intuitive to allow you to get by on your own. These solutions offer easily modifiable page templates that require very little programming skills. However, be careful with the cost because these platforms often work by subscription. They are therefore particularly useful if you want to change the content of your page often or if you only need your site to be online for a few weeks or months.
If, on the other hand, you want something a little more elaborate in terms of design and you can wait a few weeks to get your page online (depending on the agency’s production schedule), it can be interesting to use the services of a freelance web designer or a web agency. You will pay for your site once and for all and you will be able to have a completely personalized page.
Create a standard showcase site VS a specific site
The notion of “standard site” or “base site” is not always easy to identify. Oftentimes, clients ask us to do certain tasks “that takes 5 min” quickly when in reality they take several hours. The reverse scenario is just as common. Overall, if you know exactly what you want and are rather demanding, you will do well to turn to a Dallas Web Design for your project.
An experienced web agency will be able to create a tailor-made website adapted to your needs. Same thing if you want to develop specific functionalities (newsletters, chat, secure space, reservation system, store locator, etc.).
Another objective of using the services of a Dallas Web Design is to be advised and guided throughout the project. Indeed, there are many ways to create a website and the web agency should be able to tailor the project according to your goals.
Another solution would be to create the first version of your site on your own. If, for example, you are starting a business, you have little budget and time in front of you, give it a try. If you really can’t, call a web agency. If your site looks good, take the time to develop your business, and when you’re ready to make a more professional site with more options, contact an agency.
