How to Choose a Website Developer
So you've finally decided to join the family we like to call the Wild Wild West, I mean, the World Wide Web.
You've realised that your company will go no further until you get your spot on the web, but where do you start?!
There are many design and development companies out there. Therefore, it is important to make an informed decision. You can't just go for the company that gave you the cheapest quote. Quantity & quality go hand in hand - you get what you pay for.
I've included some things to consider when choosing a website developer. These are not fail-proof, but they might help you to narrow the field down.
1. Check out your developer's own website
If you don't like the look or feel of it, or think that it lacks information, then perhaps they are not the way to go. However, just remember that your opinion may be based on taste & not on quality. Judge objectively.
Do some reading about their business. Who are they? What are their vision & values? How long have they been in business? Etc.
2. Ask to see your developer's portfolio
Seeing previous work that they have done, will help you to know whether they can provide the style & quality you are looking for.
3. Ask what kind of support your developer will provide
You will need to know whether they offer support before and after the job is done, if they are able to host your website, or, assist you in the hosting process.
Find out if they will charge for updates to the site after the project is complete, or if you will be able to implement changes yourself.
4. Know what the developer's terms & conditions are
Knowing these will help you to understand how your developer conducts business. A developer should be aware of the legalities involved in projects such as these.
5. Find out how much say you will have in the project
Afterall, you don't want to pay for something that you don't like.
Remember that you are going to pay them to give your business it's "online face", therefore you need to be completely happy with your choice of developer.
Keep invovled in the process & ask lots of questions. If your developer doesn't want to answer questions, avoids issues & keeps you in the dark, change your developer. A good developer will try to not only please you, but will also give you the confidence and knowledge required to run your business on the web.

Website & Logo Design :: Cybervets
We love interesting projects at Afridesign - and Cybervets is definitely interesting.
Cybervets are exactly that - vets who give online advice to animal lovers. Just log onto their site and ask any question about your dog or cat. They give comprehensive, informative replies to all queries, be they medical, surgical, behavioural or general health related queries.
Cybervets has also won 2 Bronze awards in the last year. We received the first award in November 2008 from the SA Web Awards, and we were then re-awarded this year in September. A very cool feather in the Afridesign hat! Check it out at http://www.webawards.co.za
We are currently adding 2 new "rooms" to the website - so watch this space for more!
