Having a new website built is no mean feat. It’s probably not going to be cheap, and it could take a while to put together. When you’re going to all that effort, it’s important to make sure you’re getting something that is worthwhile. Spend some time sourcing a web design agency who will be able to complete work to meet with your own high standards.

Check the work that an agency has done before. Luckily, this is very easy as you will be able to access previous websites they have built on a device that has internet access. See if these look professional and like the kind of thing you might want for your own website.

Have a chat to the agency and see if they’re able to design the kind of site you want. Some will specialise in brochure sites and others in ecommerce so find out what they do best. Consider whether they’re the right agency for a client like you and if not, look elsewhere – there are lots around to choose from.
