Choosing a web development agency is a decision that shapes the next few years of your digital presence. These are the signs that separate a great agency from one that only builds pretty websites.
What to look at (in this order)
- A real portfolio: sites you can open and inspect. Take a look at our work.
- Performance: do their sites load fast? Ask for the Lighthouse score.
- SEO included: organic SEO shouldn't be an "add-on".
- Code ownership: that you end up the owner, with no strings attached.
- Process and transparency: clear pricing and timelines from the start. That's how we work.
- Support: what happens after launch.
Red flags
- They only show screenshots, not live sites.
- They promise "guaranteed first place on Google" (no one serious guarantees that).
- They don't mention speed or technical SEO.
- They lock you into a never-ending monthly fee just to keep the site online.
Questions you should ask
Who owns the code? Is SEO included? What Lighthouse scores do their sites have? What does post-launch support look like? The answers will tell you a lot.
