Choosing a Good Web Designer

There are a few things that separate a good web designer from a bad one, but the effects it later has are significant. For instance if you hire a good web designer, you are assured quality work from this designer and you would get your money's worth. Hire a bad web designer then consider it money wasted as the outcome will undoubtedly be poor.

So, what differentiates a good web designer form a bad one? One factor is how professional they look, if your web designer has designed their site poorly with messy navigation and 2nd grade graphics, then you should obviously stay clear from these web designers. But if the site has a nice clean layout and is easy to navigate, I would advise you to inquire more about this designer, because if they've done a good job on their site, chances are their going to do the same on yours.

Another factor would be the designer's portfolio, if the designer even has a portfolio. If the designer doesn't have a portfolio then stay well away as this usually means they are inexperienced and will make quite a few errors. These designers may charge less, but in the long run, it's not worth it. Look for a designer with a nice looking portfolio with design work that you would like. This is very important as every designer has their own style. If the style doesn't suit you, then find another designer.

Last but not least, pay close attention to the designer's approach. What I mean by this is how they contact you and how often as well as the language they use. If their English is poor, chances are they don't speak English, in which case, this will create a barrier to communication, which you need to be able to go over concepts. The designer should also contact you regularly, keeping you informed on the project.

This isn't a fool proof list, but hopefully after reading this article you will be able to make an informed decision as to which designer you want to choose for your project.
