Starting a business? Here’s an infographic on hiring web designers…

If you’re starting a business today there’s a few things you need to know:

  • You absolutely need a website, but you should already know that. The real question is where and how do you find a web designer you can trust? This infographic aims to clear up that confusion.
  • CMS’s like Wordpress and Tumblr (where this very website is hosted on) are rising dramatically because of their ability to help businesses launch websites at an affordable rate utilizing themes. While you’re limited to the amount of customizations you can make, most businesses find that a CMS like Wordpress can take care of 99% of their needs with little changes to add.    
  • Costs? A basic small business website could be anywhere from $800-2500, eCommerce depends on who your payment processor is, number of products, etc. But could be anywhere from $2500-$10,000+. If you’re thinking about a technology startup or mobile application, it really varies on what you need but this is usually the most expensive option because you need things built from the ground up more often than not.
