In the modern world a well designed web page can make all the difference between your company's success and failure. It can work as a reception lounge, where the customer can feel at ease in familiar surroundings and flick through the company brochure. Or it can steer the customer towards the shop window, where all of the products you offer are on display to browse through. It can be a till, where customers can purchase products or a customer services desk, where inquiries can be answered and information given out. True, a web page can't greet you when you enter and thank you when you leave, but it can do almost everything else.
What if you are new to web page design, though, and unsure exactly what it is you are looking for and what questions to ask of any potential web designer you are thinking of employing? Well, just like other service industries, the critical questions relate to issues of experience, reliability and compatibility. To put this into plainer English, imagine if you are in the market for a bespoke suit. Probably the first priority will be comfort and style. You'd look for a tailor with experience and ensure that he took down your measurements accurately and efficiently, and of course you'd have to provide your own body for this; nobody else's measurements would do!
Exactly the same issues apply when approaching website designers. To begin with you, would have to give a clear outline of what kind of web page you want and what kind of audience you are looking to attract. A clear outline of this will lead to discussions with the designer about how frequently the site needs to be updated, how large it needs to be and whether any other features, such as a search function and user registration, are required. In other words, you have to go through a fitting to ensure that you come out with the perfect match at the end of the process.
