How to hire a best Website Development Company

There are lots of website solutions provider companies and their cost structure is always different. Some companies are charging hourly basis and others have project based pricing. And this pricing structure makes a client confused because some companies are charging high and some are less.

And yes it is a matter to get confused; building a website is like building a home, which will be renovated after some time. The biggest question comes to seller’s mind is which is the best party to hire.

How to hire a company-

There are many start-ups providing website services and may be they do not have company portfolio however they have great experience of building, designing the site and some have a list of portfolio. Startups are not bad at all but there may be some organizational problem come across the project. Big organization always charge more money, for example a small organization or start up will do a simple website in WordPress within $10 to $15 per hour, on the other hand a big company will charge $25 to $35 per hour or even more.  So why is there a huge difference in the cost? Here is answer , a big company have several employees such as a dedicated project manager, a designer, a senior developer, junior developer or may be trainees along with them overheads, there expenditures and many things..... Which is why they charge this much. In the same case a small company has a developer cum project manager, a designer, no more expenditure, no more overheads and YES they work with fewer margins too.  

When you are approaching a website development company project ask them for below mentioned information-

1-      Company size- it should be more than 15+ employee, does not matter if they have only 2 developers with skillset you are looking for.

2-       Portfolio- Work done by company or individual employees will help you to judge the qualification

3-      Price- Ask a minimum hourly price which will make you sure if it is within your budget

Provider must understand about your project

If you go for hourly based pricing, your company will give you an estimation of total hours for example a simple wordpress site will take 80 hours to complete but sometime it get exceed because of more requirement or company could not understood the requirement clearly, same comes for fixed priced job as well. So when you are hiring a company see if they are addressing your entire requirement at initial negotiation stage so that later they will work on project without any dispute.  

Website designing companies use to share a requirement specification document to client before starting the project which is also a kind of contract which means Provider Company will execute all whatever mentioned in the document and after approval of

client they start work on it.

So it is all up to your pre research about your project and second is your budget, your research will allow you to understand the service provider if they are eligible to execute your project as you want and budget will make you sure to give it to a best provider who can consult you very well.
