It depends on your budget, timeline, and tolerance for b.s. We might be a little biased, but we always suggest hiring an agency to build your website. Here’s why.
• Agencies can definitely build ugly sites (not us!), but they usually can’t disappear. We’ve worked with far too many small businesses that hired a freelance website designer or developer who took their money, delivered a poorly-built, ugly website, and then disappeared off the face of the earth.
• We’re just as budget-friendly as a freelancer. Agencies like LoudBird are often just as affordable as a freelance web designer or developer.
• Agencies offer a trustworthy, reliable team. Projects are never hung up due to sick days, gaps in communication, or unanticipated workload crunches that might impact a freelancer or contractor.
• Full-service convenience for all your marketing needs. Website design agencies like LoudBird also offer many other marketing services you need. So you can keep your marketing focused with one unified strategy.
If you don’t have time or mental energy to waste and you want a reliable, transparent website design and development experience, hire an agency like LoudBird.
If you’ll indulge us in a super-nerdy analogy, your website is like the mothership for your entire online presence. Social media profiles, advertisements, word-of-mouth referrals, and organic search engine results all lead back to your website—so it better look great and function smoothly.
Here’s why LoudBird’s website design and development team is the right choice for small business WordPress and Shopify websites.
• Fast, furious, and focused WordPress and Shopify website builds. For when you don’t have time to wait for a non-communicative or slow web design team.
• Custom WordPress websites built with an intuitive page builder. So you can change small details like colors, fonts, images, and product details yourself, without waiting for tech support or your design agency to answer your email.
• SEO performance and user experience are prioritized equally for web design and development that ranks well in Google AND wows your customers.
•Lightweight code and image compression that helps your site load faster so Google will rank it #1 in search results.
• Mobile-friendly website designs. So your website looks flawless on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
Your small business needs a thriving online presence to grow. And your website is the beginning and end of most customer experiences, whether they find you on social media, through an advertisement, or are referred by a friend.
Let the LoudBird team design your website to rank highly in search engines, impress and convert customers, inspire trust in patients and clients, and give your brand the modern, professional look it deserves.
