What with all that's been happening with the floods, Covid, etc, I've been reminded how much more important self-care is these days. I've put a little video together as a gentle reminder, I hope you like it. But I hope even more that you'll take action, if you can, to stay healthy...be well.
Tell me what you think! 🙂

What do your potential designers know about SEO?
Can they design a site that ranks highly on a Google search?
It’s great to have a beautiful, well-structured site - but how are people going to find it?
Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can help in any way. 🙂

When it comes to actually dealing with the designer, there are a few things to keep in mind:

Are they clear in critical things like time lines, pricing, expectations of you and them?

Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can help in any way. 🙂

Do you like what this designer has done so far?

Take a look at a few examples of their work.
Do you like what you see?
Or would you like more flair and cutting-edge as opposed to straight-laced and business-like?
What image do you want to portray for your company, and is it reflected in any of their work?

Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can help in any way. 🙂

You want someone who knows how design works and how it communicates to a client. For instance, this font I’m using is a pretty standard one that’s easy to read, and the color stands out from the background. You don’t want something hard to read like black text on a dark grey background.

Colors and color combinations give a subconscious, almost subliminal message. The color of this page, for example, is a shade of grey. That gives a message of being business-like and professional. Bright orange on pink definitely gives another message.
Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can help in any way. 🙂

Say you're looking for the right designer for your website.
One of the most important questions you may ask yourself is this:
What is their skillset?

Not so much where did they get their diploma, but what kind of work do they do? Only front-end (design)? What about back-end (coding)?

You might say “All I need is someone who can quickly put a site together with a template”. That may be so, but what if you don’t like the colors in that template? What if you want to change the font or layout? In these instances, coding may be in order, so you want to work with a designer who can code or with an agency that has a programmer on staff.

What you don’t want is the “deer in the headlights” look from your designer when you want a slight change.
Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can help in any way. 🙂

I don’t know about you , but I want to see testimonials from customers and proof that the designer does good work.
Where would you find that proof?
In real, live, honest sites that they have built for real customers. If you don’t see that, how do you know what they’re like?
Their site may be the slickest, prettiest, most well-designed ever, but what about real customers?
What do you think?
Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can help in any way. 🙂

Closely linked with integrity is honesty.

Does the designer do what they say they’re going to do in the time frame they promised?

You might say, that’s all well and good, but how do I know?
How would I know about their integrity and honesty if I haven’t dealt with this designer before or don’t know anybody personally that has?
Here's how: look for a real link to a real website the designer has worked on, which should be easily found in the testimonial.
If you can't find one, there's no proof, and I would just move on...
What do you think?
Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can help in any way. 🙂
