Your web designer has great credentials and is easy to work with. Is that a winning combination? Not necessarily! Does she ask the right questions? Does he have a proven track record? Can she blend the proper aesthetics with the necessary mechanicals to create a winner? Remember, a Porsche without an engine is just a very expensive piece of sheet metal. That principle also applies to your website.

So how do you choose which one to hire for your small business's website? Here are some guidelines:

1. First, be very clear about what you need. Approaching a web developer with the attitude of, "I don't know what I need, so you'll have to tell me" can turn into a costly exercise in frustration for all involved. Do your homework! Find other sites that do what you do, and get some ideas about what you like and what you don't. Make a list of "needs" and "would be nice." Know your target audience - whom do you want to serve or attract?
