Digital Marketing Consultants

Whether you’re starting a brand from the ground up or your current website needs a complete overhaul due to lack of performance, working with a website design agency gives you access to the top experts in web design.

In turn, these experts have access to leading tools, modern trends, best practices and more to help ensure that your website is not only unique but built to perform — if you find the right agency, that is. Not all agencies are created equal.

We’ll breakdown exactly what to look for in a partner to help you choose the best website design agency for your project.

How To Find The Best Web Design Company

Follow the step-by-step guide below to kickstart your search and learn how to evaluate potential web design companies to partner with your brand.

Step 1: Define Your Needs

Before you start the hunt, the first step is to fully define your needs. Here are three key areas to consider:

• Design needs: Are you looking to build a new website from the ground up? Or do you have a current digital presence that needs either a light refresh or a complete overhaul?
• Design approach: Are you satisfied to settle for an agency that works with templates or do you need an agency that designs custom websites?
• Website goals: What are your specific goals for the website? For example: Higher search engine ranking, more traffic, greater engagement, increased conversion.
• Website requirements: What are your specific requirements for the website? Do you have a platform in mind? Create a list of must-have features and functionalities, along with a list of nice-to-haves if your budget allows.

Creating a website request for proposal (RFP) document can help you organize and outline your project for potential agencies. Agencies that are interested in taking on your project can then use this document to respond by submitting a proposal or a bid.

Step 2: Start Your Search

The best way to find an agency for your digital project is, of course, online! Use a search engine or check out a B2B marketplace like DesignRush — you can actually post your RFP here and wait for a bid, or search agencies and reach out to a few on your own.

Step 3: Research & Shortlist Agencies

Whether you use a marketplace or Google to find potential partners, the next step is thorough research. For each agency you’re interested in, explore the agency’s:

• Website: For an agency that you’re considering partnering with, a professional website design is a must.
• Services: Some agencies focus on specific areas like web design or branding, while full-service agencies offer an entire scope of digital services.
• Portfolio: Any reputable agency will have a digital portfolio easily accessible and available for potential clients to view. Look through the projects to get an idea of the agency’s capabilities in terms of design, development, branding and other applicable areas, in different industries.
• Client testimonials: Get a feel for what it’s like to work with the agency through client testimonials that provide feedback about processes, team members and deliverables.

Shortlist agencies based on these factors and create a list of 3-5 agencies to set up a meeting with — which brings us to the next step!

Step 4: Meet With The Agency(s)

Meeting with your potential partner, whether in person or digitally, allows you to get to know the team members who will be working on your project and ask questions about what the agency’s processes look like behind the scenes.

Some questions to ask when hiring a professional web design agency include:

1. What sets you apart from other agencies?
2. What digital services do you offer in addition to web design?
3. Do you have experience working with clients in my industry?
4. What does your website design process look like?
5. What does your website development process look like?
6. Who are the team members that will be working on my project?
7. Will you provide recommendations and ideas for my project?
8. What will our partnership look like in terms of communication and project updates?
9. How much will my project cost and how long will it take to complete?
10. How do you measure results?

These questions will help give you an inside look into the experience of the agency’s team members, the value that the agency offers and what your relationship with the agency will look like throughout the life of your partnership — all important factors to consider when choosing the best web design agency for your project.

Step 5: Make Your Decision

Finally, it’s time to choose the best company for the job. Base your decision on your interview(s), the team members you met and the information you gathered.

From their portfolio of past projects to the way they handle partnerships and measure success, the right company will be one that offers a team of experts, project ownership and complete transparency throughout your project.
