Finally Friday, and I am going to talk about website design today. Website design is what I created this website for to communicate what I want to do. I started helping out a few friends that needed a website and then they talked to me about ongoing help. After I looked up what it would cost to pay someone else to build and manage it I knew that they would need someone. So I stepped in to help and thought that I could help others as well.
I have built websites for years and have found great fulfillment in them. I enjoy helping people land a spot online. But what I have found out was that I was doing a disservice as there is a lot of upkeep on a website that I was not helping them with. I also wanted to help more people.
What to look for with design
There are things like marketing, SEO, updates, and broken websites. All things that would need to be up to date if they are to have strong presences online. Also, it was hard to add things like pages to their website when needed. So I decided to start and have fun with it. I wanted to be a resource for small to medium businesses. Here is a great article on Forbes about website design (here).
There are many things to consider when looking for someone to be your website design person. Is this something that you are going to want ongoing service or create the site? Are you going to need ongoing service for something like creating web pages, upkeep of a shopping experience, or manage socials? So what do you need all should be answered before you pay for a service. You also want to know if they can do what you want.
That is why I provide a service that I start with an initial call to see if we are a good fit for each other and I can help you with what you want. Also, this will set expectations of what you want and what I can do. I never want to over-promise I will let you know how I can help and what I can do. If you would like to start that process you can get started here. You can check out my services page (here) for more information as well.
If you have more questions or comments drop them below or head to the Contact Us page (here).
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Your friend,
Wesley
