How to Choose a Web Design Company in Houston

• By Opolis Marketing, Houston, TX

Houston has plenty of web designers, and they are not all alike. Use this checklist to compare them.

1. Look at real work

Ask to see websites they have built, and open them on your phone. Do they load fast and look good on a small screen?

2. Ask who owns what

You should own your domain name and your website content. Ask in writing before you sign anything.

3. Make sure mobile and SEO are included

Most searches happen on phones. A site that is not mobile friendly, or has no page titles, descriptions and headings set up, will struggle to be found. Read more about how SEO works.

4. Ask about support after launch

Websites need updates. Find out who handles changes, security updates and questions once the site is live, and how quickly they respond.

5. Expect clear pricing

A good company can explain what you are paying for and what is not included. Be careful with prices that sound too good to be true.

6. Check communication

Do they answer calls and texts? Do they explain things in plain language? You will be working with them for a while.

7. Look for a company that sees the whole picture

A website is only part of getting customers. Look for a team that can also help with lead generation, social media and branding.
