How do I choose a web designer?

Choose a web designer by evaluating their portfolio, checking client reviews, and asking about their process.

Look for designers who have experience in your industry, show measurable results (not just pretty designs), and communicate clearly. Ask about their design process, revision policy, timeline, and post-launch support. Red flags include no portfolio, no contract, vague pricing, and no discussion of your business goals. A good designer asks about your customers, competitors, and objectives before showing you design options. Request references from past clients, and make sure you'll own your website and domain when the project is complete.
