I’m planning to build a website for my small business and I’ve been researching different options for development. There are so many freelancers and agencies available, and it’s a bit confusing to decide which one is the right fit.
For example, while searching for website development in Kolkata, I noticed that some companies focus more on design, while others highlight performance, SEO, or long-term support. As someone who is not very technical, I’m not sure what factors I should prioritize.
Should I be more focused on:
- The technology they use (WordPress, custom code, etc.)?
- Their previous portfolio and experience?
- SEO optimization and mobile responsiveness?
- Or ongoing maintenance and support?
Also, how important is it to choose a local service provider versus working with someone remotely?
I’d really appreciate any advice or suggestions from people who have already gone through this process.
