What to look for in a Web Development Company
Look at their attention to the details and how quickly they can understand your industry and the services you want to provide.

If the web developer doesn't quickly understand your services, products or the business segment you want to reach, then how can they create a website that reflects your needs.

You could spend hundreds of hours writing everything yourself and you may end up micro-managing the project. This costs money and time.

Business Development Planners uses staff that understand your business and can write both marketing and technical content that will drive sales.

Create a Development Plan
If you want to create software or a website, start with the basics.
1. List the key features of the website

2. Gather all your literature, photos and videos to take stock of what you have. Determine what you would like to see on the web. Bad photos, Poor Dress, Wrong Expressions, Poor Backgrounds can kill a site. Discuss the cost to refresh or replace these items. This area can take time and can be costly for quality productions.

3. List your targeted audience. Discuss how you would like to monitor your websites performance.

4. Look online for competitive sites and list all the pros/cons.

5. Create a budget on what you would like to spend for the following sections:
A. Home Page (Allowcate a high percentage to the home page, customers will walk if they don't see a cool site).
B. Shopping Cart functionality and Style.
C. Marketing startup cost and the on-going costs for maintenance and marketing.
