When a website is created with customised functionalities and design, it is called custom web design. • What many business owners fail to realise is that templates are frequently unsatisfied for their needs and can be slow to load. • Here are some things that every small business should consider when hiring a website designer for custom web design.
Website logo • The website logo is displayed at the top of a website. It establishes the site's brand. • A logo stays with a customer and is often the only thing they remember. Building an online business requires a strong sense of branding. • The logo on a website should not be different from the one on business cards. • The company logo should be consistent across the board so that customers can instantly recognize the brand.
Website Font • The font used on the website is extremely important. • The right font can make a site look modern or traditional, making an immediate impression on the audience. • When the body font contrasts with the website logo, the website can appear cluttered and inconsistent.
Website content • Search engines place a high value on content. Without content, your website cannot do its job of being found and gaining business. • Your target audience should find your pages informative and helpful. • It is worthwhile to hire a content writer who is familiar with writing for search engines.
Websites that have been designed to be search engine friendly • To put in effort, a website should be built for search engines, with key terms in mind. • A good website designer will design from the ground up with search engines in mind. • If pages are to be found, they must have search engine friendly URLs, titles, and content. • Images should be saved in accordance with their content, and alt tags should be included. • SEO can be improved later, but if the URL is changed, the page will lose rank and must begin the climb again.
Photographs and images for the website • Quality photographs or illustrations should be carefully considered. A poor photograph can seriously degrade the website's quality. • Because you can't increase the DPI of a photograph, take it at a high resolution, even if you're using a smartphone. • Send the original to the designer without resizing or compressing it. • Photos with low resolution and pixilation look terrible. • Professional photos can make or break a well-designed business website.
How much does it cost to design a custom website? • It's difficult to say how much a website should cost because it depends on the design, pages, payment options, and functionality. • And there are numerous web designers, each with their own set of standards. • Website designers can provide 'off the shelf' solutions as well as cheap website design for start-ups. • However, if you truly want the website to function properly, invest in a professional web designer. • I frequently see businesses spend more money to have a website fixed, moved, or improved.
