Deciding on an Edmonton web design company to craft your business's website is very important. It is about striking a balance between
finding a web design and development company that is going to work within your parameters, but also push the envelope of creativity a bit to
allow your company to stand out amongst the rest in the crowded web space. Call Smart WSI Marketing today for a consultation!
1. Understanding Your Business Goals
The first step in finding the best web design company for you is to start by shopping around. It may be impossible to meet with every web
design company in Edmonton, but a quick Google search will give you a good idea where to start. Meet with a few different web design
agencies and make sure they clearly understand your business goals. Discuss your company vision at length with them and be sure your chosen
website designer is on the same page as you. They should not only thoroughly understand your vision and goals, but have ideas of how to take
you there, and beyond. The right web designer will not only want to meet your expectations but exceed them.
2. Make Sure You Work Within a Budget
A web designer can promise you all the bells and whistles when it comes to designing you a website, but if your company can’t afford it,
what’s the point? A good web design agency will be willing to work with your budget to provide the best results possible to meet your needs.
While it is crucial to invest in your website, as it will be the online beacon for your business, you don’t want to break the bank on a
fancy website. When you meet with a web design company to discuss your vision, make sure they can also work with your budget.
3. It Doesn’t End with a Website
It is important to note that every website is not designed for marketing. A website designed for marketing powers your brand. It facilitates
your customers’ journey to purchase and should be a consistent lead generation machine that improves your business productivity. While an
attractive website is a large part of this, to get the most out of your website, it should be designed with SEO best practices in mind, as
well as supported by other digital marketing services, such as pay-per-click ads, content marketing via blogs and social media, and
geofencing. The supporting marketing activities that best suit your business and your goals will of course be decided by your internet
marketing agency, and yourself. What works for one business may not be right for yours. Your agency will help guide you on those strategies
to help you get the most out of your website.
