Our experience in the
Miami website design and development space has enabled us to offer these tips for getting your website project off the ground.
Really pin down the goal of your website. Is it to attract customers? Sell products? Build the brand? This will help define the scope of the project and let the developer offer an effective solution.
The proof is in the pudding. When vetting developers ask for links to live websites they have developed. Further, make sure to ask what their involvement was – did they hand off a design to a developer, just get the contact-us form working, or create the whole thing?
- Define the functionality of your site.
Concrete specifications are greatly appreciated by developers. As best you can, fully define the functionality and features of your website. In my experience this is where 90% of client-developer disconnects come from. What are the features of your site? Are any third-party applications integrated? What will your new site “do?” Make sure to really think this through and be sure all the bells-and-whistles are included. For more complex sites it is highly recommended to formally engage a web development firm to define your project specs for you. A small consulting fee in the initial phases will save you money in the long run and keep your project well defined, enabling you to hold developers accountable for their work. I can’t underscore the importance of this enough.
Typically a basically functionality requirement analysis will cost anywhere from $85 to $750 dollars. However, we love our readers, so mention the blog for a free basic analysis (up to 1 hour of system architect time.)
