Before Hiring A Web Designer:
○ Think about the purpose of your website? Are you service- or product-oriented?
○ What information do you want to convey and how do you want to organize it?
○ Research other websites; what appeals to you and what doesn't? Then convey your expectations.
○ Understand the differences between a custom (or hand-coded) HTML/CSS site vs website templates.
○ Allow plenty of time for your site to be developed and completed when setting deadlines.
○ Some designers offer "freebies" but then add on many other hidden fees; read your contract.
