When it comes to the planning and executing the design of a website or Online Business, there are really two ways of going about it. On one side, you have custom built and designed websites with massive flexibility and on the other, you have pre-built website template designs.

How do I know if a company is telling the truth that they provide custom designed websites?
Many companies provide website designs that were put together in mass production, then they provide the templates of these basic designs to plug in text and photos and sell to their customers at a very low cost. They sell them as “Custom Designed Websites”. This is false and misleading. If you look at their portfolios, you can see a simple “cookie cutter” style design that sorely lacks in top notch creativity and branding that we at A Work Of Art, Inc. provide. If they provide SEO services, find out how much time a month is manually put into it, and get examples of their work. SEO needs the hands on thoroughness, effort and expertise to succeed as it should. As you can see from our portfolio, every professional business website is custom tailored and built from scratch for each and every client.

Choosing a web designer or web development company is a crucial decision, and you must be careful when choosing a company to handle the responsibilities involved with building and developing your professional business website.

Each and every day I hear horror stories about how someone hired a designer, they could not handle what they needed them to do and so they disappeared or kept their money. Now that person or company needs to spend the money all over again… they THOUGHT they got a good deal and had no idea what was involved with developing a stable, reliable, custom designed website that would have everything they wanted from branding to integrated marketing and complex functionality for professional business sites. Below are some important things to consider when selecting a website designer or company for your project.
