We’ve just launched a new website for a fabulous company, Play On. Play On, based in Perth WA, offer fun sports games for kids programs. Just by looking at the photos you can see how much fun the kids and Wayne, the founder and coach, are having.

If you’re in Perth I imagine your kids would love a session and if you’re not in Perth let’’s hope they expand.

With the number of web design firms around getting a website should be easy. Sadly too often the opposite is true. There’s too much choice along with too many differences in services and price.

What to do?

Obviously budget is important but I feel it is far more important to choose a company that can meet your expectations. A company that can understand your business needs and provide a strategy, and develop a solution, that will fulfill those needs. A company that will listen to you and explain concepts in a language you understand. A company that understands a website is about more than looking pretty or ranking #1 in the search engines. A company that understands that those elements are just part of the equation - the site must convert those rankings into sales.

Sure look at prices but also look at how they communicate with you and how confident you are in their ability to provide what they promise. You want to build a relationship with your web designer that brings you both success. Focus on that when you’re reviewing proposals and it should help guide you to the right company.
