Marketing
Online marketing is a vital knowledge. Make sure that your web developer knows how to effectively use email, search and social media marketing activities.
Usability and Accessibility Issues
A good web developer can make your site content engaging, engrossing and easy to navigate, ensuring that assistive technology makes it accessible to all.
Speaking Your Language
With so many web gadgets emerging, a good web developer will be able to tell you what will and won’t work for your site. You do not have to use the latest gizmo just because it is available. Using clear and understandable explanations will ease the process.
Approachability
A good web developer can only help and advise you – it’s your website and your business. See him or her as a consultant who can understand and accommodate your requirements, not take over and dictate.
