So you think it’s a good idea to keep your web development services in-house? I don’t. Especially since outsourcing web development work may be the best and fastest solution to get yourself the professional and lights-out-awesome website you’ve dreamt about for your company. And, of course, let’s not forget, it’s the website you deserve.

Okay, let’s not start celebrating just yet.

Your business has a pain point, something that costs time, energy and even customers. For many businesses, that pain point is the inability to deliver a positive user experience online.

Maybe that’s you, too. Don’t be bashful. We’ve all got our issues. Some people have astigmatism in their eye, you’ve got a lousy website.

You want to be competitive in your market, want to be the best you can be… but like I just said, your website is– Well, let’s put it this way…

Pathetic is to Your Website, As Failure is to _______.

  1. The Last Jedi
  2. The Cleveland Browns
  3. The DC Extended Universe Movies (minus Wonder Woman)
  4. High Fructose Corn Syrup

Okay, let’s back things up for a second because the reality is that most people don’t even know what web development is. They think it pertains to either design, or UX or just a website.

Well… it’s all of those things– but it’s more.

What is Web Development?

Web Development is the process of creating websites and related products, i.e. web design, web maintenance, web app development, mobile app development, API integration and more.

The thing is, it’s a very broad term. It relates to the creation of the simplest of web pages and the trickiest of web applications. Nowadays, even content management systems are considered web development tasks. Web design, CRM, network security, and scripting are all part of web development.

The Web Development Process

  1. Basic
    1. Graphic & Web Design – This is both the form and function of your website.
    2. Mobile Responsiveness
  2. Testing

Basic:

Graphic Design

This is the visual aspect of your site, including fonts, color choices, images, page layouts, etc.

Web Design

This is the information architecture, copywriting & copyediting aspect of your site. Your content is organized in a way to maximize accessibility and the user experience, while incorporating proven SEO techniques.

Mobile Responsiveness

Guys, it’s almost 2019. If you don’t know by now that you need a responsive web design, then your head just isn’t screwed on right.

Yes, the website needs to be responsive so that it can customize and adapt according to the user’s screen size. This feature allows a website to look and be awesome on every device regardless of display size, be it mobile, smartphone, tablet, laptop or desktop.

Testing:

“Testing is the process of evaluating a system or its component(s) with the intent to find whether it satisfies the specified requirements or not. Testing is executing a system in order to identify any gaps, errors, or missing requirements contrary to the actual requirements. The extent of testing varies greatly between organizations, developers, and individual sites or applications.”

– Wikipedia

Testing is an ongoing endeavor that never ends.

You’re beginning to see just how Herculean a task it is to take on web development by yourself. The creation of a website is an enormous undertaking, that doesn’t just end on launch day. You need help. You need to outsource to an experienced website design agency.

“The success of a website is much more complicated than listing out project details during the kickoff meeting and then diving in. Experienced website design agencies take a collaborative approach with the rest of the marketing team that includes setting goals, creating personas, strategizing, UI/UX testing, content creation, A/B testing and so much more. Ultimately, it comes down to creating a great user experience with relevant and useful information designed to guide customers seamlessly through the buying process.”

Why should you Outsource Web Development Work?

Well, for one thing, web development isn’t even your business. You don’t have the time, the experience or the expertise to develop the website you know you need.

Your focus and resources are on your company’s expertise; things like sales, marketing and actual product or service. As they should be. You don’t have the time or skill to develop your business’s website, too.

Ain’t nobody got time for that. (yes, I just quoted an internet meme from 5 years ago– I cry your pardon)

Problem is, somebody has to do it. Your website is too vital, too central to the success of your business for it to be, first, put on the back burner and, second, to be done by amateurs.

“As the place where most people initiate contact with businesses for the first time, your website is perhaps your brand’s single most valuable asset. How visitors interact with your website shapes their impression of your brand and perceived value of what you have to offer.”

– CMDS

A lot of people have a DIY approach to web development. Especially small business owners. They look at outsourcing their web development work as a needless investment. They want to save the money to spend on other initiatives. This is a mistake. It’s a sacrifice of long-term quality for the sake of short-term expense.
In-house development leads to outhouse abandonment.

As they say, garbage in, garbage out.

This is the part where you say, “How about I hire a full-time IT guy?”

To this, I quip “I thought you wanted to save money?”

Because in the long run, an IT guy is going to run you a lot mo’ money, an IT department even more. Or maybe you’re looking to hire a single programmer to keep on retainer or something. Just keep him in a desk drawer, pull him out from time to time, dust him off and put him to work for only certain projects. Well, those guys cost the most.

Man, you’re chock full of bad ideas today.
