with little or no professional training, we have professional
qualifications in web design and usability
and are certified with university level degrees. Because web
design goes beyond having creative abilities, your web design company needs to be qualified in evaluating your
needs, launching a project and completing it on time
and on budget.
2. Our 12 Years of Experience
We’ve been in business for over 12 years. While most web
design companies come and go, our first web design client is still our client today. Throughout
the years, the internet has changed drastically and we’ve
changed right along with it. From simple html, to e-commerce
solutions to search engine optimization, you’ll find
the right formula for you with our web design team.
From your needs analysis to our
research and production method, our team will give you a realistic

design project with us.
3. Our Client Testimonials
Look
through our testimonials and it will
give you a good idea of the web
design service you can expect. These testimonies are accompanied by a contact name and their
respective web site so that you know it's not a fake marketing
ploy. The web design company that you ultimately choose should be
able to put you in touch with satisfied clients.
4. Our Portfolio
Our web design team designs for your target
market. Check out our web
design portfolio and you’ll realize that all
our designs have a unique look that
is easy to navigate and a style that fits a specific market. While other web design companies use a hit-or-miss
method to web design, our web designers spend a great
deal of time researching your field and planning your site
before proposing any type of layout. Not only should you love the web site you
pay for but it should be a web site that reaches your business
goals and represents your target market.
5. Contact
You can contact
our web designers by phone or e-mail. We are prompt,
helpful, professional, polite and friendly. We find this
always makes it easier to do business and less stress on
yourself, since our goal is to build a strong and stable
relationship with your company.
Beware of companies who don't list a direct number or provide
a 1-800-number that doesn't lead directly to their offices
or the company answering service. You should be able to have
direct contact with your web designer or project manager in
charge of creating your site.
6. Technology
Whether you want to use advanced technologies on your site,
such as flash, shockwave or database integration, our web designers
are experienced and qualified to know the impacts these options
may have on your site. Some options may be expensive to implement
and may not be needed for you to set up your business on the
web. We will never recommend more than you actually need to
reach your goals.
7. Free Consultation
Whether you have a plan of what you need or you don't know
where to begin, contact our designers for a free consultation
before you set up a contract with anyone else. Not only will
this give you a clear comparison of services and pricing, but
it may save you months of unnecessary worries if you make the
wrong decision.
8. Our Team Size
We're a web design team that is made up
of 2 designers, 2 programmers and an IT specialist. We do web
design full time for both small and medium sized companies
and over the years have developed a working method that has
become our formula for success. Our team is equipped with experience,
certifications, degrees and a work ethic that has kept us busy
for the last 8 years.
9. Pricing and Payment
Surf around the web to compare web design prices and you'll
have a ballpark figure of what to expect from your web design
team. Custom sites should be reasonably priced. Beware of prices
that are too low. Web sites that are priced in the hundreds
are usually based on a template design and not catered to your
specific needs. Beware of companies that ask for full payment
before the start of any project. The norm of web design payment
has become half of the full price up front and the remainder
before project delivery.
10. Ongoing Support
Support means that you know you can contact our web designers
to get a prompt and courteous answer to any question or concern
you may have. Many companies outsource overseas.
Although this method is a great money saver for web design companies, it does mean that the support does not come directly
from your web design company but an outsourced company in a
different region. Problems such as custom
support and quality of project are compromised when your
support team is not in-house.
Saffron Web design offers maintenance agreements that keep
you in touch with your original web designer, building a strong
and steady relationship throughout the expansion of your business
and projects. |
