Tips For Choosing Web Design In Co Donegal Ireland

By Marci Glover


Your website is in effect your online shop window. Often when people are using their search engine this will be their first point of contact and their first view of what your company is. In effect your site becomes your brand and so it is vital that it is as effective as possible. This is why you need to choose the right web design in Co Donegal Ireland.

In effect your site is the equivalent of a shop window. How you display your business will affect how people see you. In much the same way as poorly stacked shelves and dust would put off a passing shopper fuzzy photos, unreadable text and badly thought out design can have a similar effect to someone checking a site.

The look of a site should be appropriate to your business. For example how you would market a football team would be very different to how you would market a five star hotel. It requires different types of text, logos, music and so forth. There is also the issue of budget but it is worth investing in the right people.

This is where search engine optimisation comes in. It may sound complex but in basic terms this is about getting your company to the top of search engine results. For example if you run a bakery then you want people to be able to look up local bakers and find the name of your company at the top.

You also need to think about the kind of site you want. Some people want something relatively simple. A brochure site is so called because it consists of a few pages and is generally just there to inform people about the company and then give them the location and contact details of the company.

One thing to look out for is SEO or search engine optimisation. This will often be a separate cost to the initial design. However if SEO is done effectively it is worth it as this will get you to the top of search engine rankings and this will mean it is more likely that people will go to your site.

There is also the issue of whether you want a template or bespoke site. A template will usually be cheaper and can look good. The problem is it is likely to look similar to a lot of other sites out there. Therefore you have to decide whether or not you want to invest a bit more in order to stand out.

It is important to check and compare a number of services. You can do this using your regular search engine. A number of designers will offer quotes for free. This is a good way of comparing the service they have to offer as well as the price. It is also advisable to check online for feedback from other clients to narrow down the options and find the ideal company to suit your needs.
