Read Time: 3 minutes

We live in a time where the need for great websites, that function to suit a user’s experience are in high demand, and this demand is increasing daily. If your business does not yet have a fully functioning website, then it might be time to consider building one to suit your customer needs. There are a few ways to get your website up and running, but we recommend using a website developer to save your time and other valuable resources for what matters most.

At Connectica, we have left some phenomenal and highly practical websites in our wake over the past few years. With a professional web developer on our team, we have all the experience, expertise and knowledge you need in order to create the perfect website for your business.

You might be thinking, well, wouldn’t it be alright for me to just create a quick site using one of the available platforms? Our response would be, yes sure you can, but you would be missing some of the key ingredients.

Embedded in the skill of website development are a few tricks of the trade and essential elements that a great website will require. At Connectica, we tailor-make websites to engage potential customers through their access to your site and how exposed and visible your site is through SEO (search engine optimization).

This is why we thought you would appreciate learning about some practical tips to working with a professional web developer. Take a look below.

Decide On What You Need

It’s all very well to browse a few of your competitor’s websites, but we recommend you get down to the nitty gritty of your needs as quickly as possible. Our advice in this process would be to cut the fat and be as specific as possible about what kinds of features and functions would best serve your business goals and services.

Make a list of how many pages you would like to have, as well as whether you want your website to run as an e-commerce store, or simply as an easy way for customers to engage with what you do and make a booking. If you’re uncertain of what functions can be used to achieve which goals, then connect with an expert to get some ideas.

Find The Right Developer & Build Relationship

Relationships can make or break your business in many different cases. For today, we’ll just talk about relationships with a web developer. Find a professional website developer that you can see a potential on-going working relationship with.

When you approach a professional web designer, keep in mind that they are the expert in their field. This means they will know more about the web in various situations. We are not saying that this is always the case, but keep in mind why you chose to ask a web developer and trust their experience and expertise, even when you don’t see the full picture yet.

There is nothing wrong with asking questions about why web developers recommend different directions when building your website, but keep in mind it is better to ask the questions to avoid any miscommunications in the process.

Be Ready To Collaborate & Share Feedback

When it comes to hiring a professional web developer, be ready to bring your A-game. Building a website is often a lot of collaboration between a client and a web developer, with some back and forth conversations around different points of the development or design process.

The relationship needs to be a two-way street. You will be required to provide your web developer with all the information, assets, and details that they need to. Be sure to be prompt in response to your web developers so that you can trust them to achieve the most sustainable outcome for your website.

It’s also important that you are 100% honest through the process to avoid any complications down the road. We recommend you over-communicate rather than under communicate, and never be afraid to gain more understanding along the way.

They say teamwork makes the dream work!
