The value of experience
Many people call themselves ‘web designers’ if they’ve been to college and can produce a basic website, or even if they’ve taught themselves to use a tool such as Adobe Dreamweaver or Contribute. However we value education and experience – in our opinion a person can’t call themselves a ‘web designer’ until they’ve been educated in the technologies, and have spent considerable time in the industry gaining knowledge of the problems and solutions. It just can’t be said how important experience is. It makes the difference between a mediocre website, and a great one.
We often come across websites which have been created by someone’s relative – a nephew, niece, daughter, son. Very often the site doesn’t look great or work properly, so potential customers are put off by the experience and buy from one of your competitors instead. An unprofessional, badly designed website is a real business-killer!
We have seen many of these websites, and generally end up replacing them completely.
Another thing we see a lot of is ‘free’ websites (read our Blog article on the subject here). These are advertised by companies such as GoDaddy and Wix.com, often on the premise that they are completely free! However, most business owners don’t realise how much time is required to create a well-designed, professional website. The time requirements are enormous – if you’re creating a ‘free’ website then you have to do all of this work yourself. This means that you’re not spending the time developing your business or generating sales.
If you engage with a professional web designer, they will take care of all of this for you, leaving you to concentrate on running a successful business.
