As a small business owner wanting to gain new customers and market your business, you should consider setting up a web page.
Before undertaking this activity there are several issues you should raise with your web designer:
Does your business own the intellectual property rights to your website, including the design, and content?
How easy is it to add new details to the site and change existing content to keep the website up to date?
Does the web designer have support in case they are unable to continue working for you? Are they easily accessible to attend to any rectification issues or updates?
How can the web designer provide evidence that the site is working? Are there reports available to evidence hits to the site?
What experience do they have in, and can they provide evidence of their design work?
An effective website requires creative design and continuing support to ensure it provides a return on the investment made.
