What are the benefits of using local website designers?

I can’t get hold of my website designer is a sentence I hear a lot, here are some of the reasons why local is better!

1. Communication, most web designers will be in the office or by some sort of technology to answer or get back to your questions as soon as possible. Also being in constant contact we can get the website development quicker and better, changes can be written down and then put into place with very little delay on the website build time.
2. Lower risk, Yes websites can be expensive, do you want to run the risk of paying for an expensive website and you can’t get hold of the person or company. By using local you will be able to do some easy background checks on the person and or company and see their reviews.
3. Support. If you hired a web designer that is not local to you or your business and need some questions answered and they only have online support, you will have to wait for them to come online to potentially get the answer you want which by the time that happens it may be too late, resulting in delays for you and your business.
4. Can’t update your website? This is another benefit of having a local designer is that they may ask every month if you need and updates and or changes added to your website if you have bought a Website care plan or a website hosting plan will include updates.

My website is broken or outdated

 

What happens if a website is broken, simply the website will not follow a link to a new page or product or it will not load and the most common problem with a broken website would be text or images overlapping each other after an update.
