In a globalized marketplace, businesses nowadays have so many choices when it comes to website design services. It may be tempting to consider going with an off-shore provider, but there are real advantages to choosing a local web designer for your website build.

Proven Track Record
Websites, internet branding and promotions utilise online reviews; with the small stars that appear next to a search result being extremely beneficial in online trading.
A Hervey Bay local professional web-designer will not only create you an amazing website, but being very familiar with the local market translates directly into a better understanding of your business, audience and customer requirements.
Being able to personally verify a web-designer’s reputation and/or meet before spending any time or money is invaluable. Many offshore freelancers use a fictitious system, outsource projects and cut corners which increase the risk of potential problems.
Using a local developer means that you can easily check up on any credentials and/or reviews.
Ongoing Relationship
A common issue when designing a website is miscommunication and if English is not the developer’s first language; issues are likely to occur. With a local designer, any issues that occur are more easily rectified as a local contractor will have better understanding and knowledge of your specific requirements. And, of course, it is very easy to organise a face to face meeting.
A local web designer is likely to have relative knowledge of businesses within your catchment area; which will also be of more value to you than someone working remotely.
