I think we can all agree that having a reliable, measurable, and high quality custom website design is a imperative to the success of your business. However, many companies are undecided whether or not to let their in-house staff create and maintain the website, or to hire an outside professional web design firm. I have experienced both sides of the argument by previously working for a company that did their website in-house, and by now working for a leader in the web design industry. Unless you are a fortune 500 company it won’t work. In fact, many fortune 500 companies also rely on outside agencies to build their sites. That being said, I am prepared to offer my top 5 reasons why you should hire an outside web design company.

1. Talent: An outside web developer will have some of the most talented, knowledgeable programmers and designers available. If you have to rely on someone inside your company, you will most likely have to settle for someone who has an average skill level and who views web design as more of a part-time job or hobby, rather than an art.
2. Time: Depending on the depth and scope of your site, most reputable web designers can create your new site from scratch in a couple of months. By relying on in house staff, your timeline may be longer and more drawn out due to the employee’s schedule and other job responsibilities.
3. Money: Although the initial investment of hiring a web design firm is greater, you will save money on your website overall by having the website done correctly, the first time.
4. Technology: People in the web design industry must constantly stay on track of current trends and technologies. When you hire a web design company you will find that they will a ton of knowledge on current trends on the web and how they can use those to leverage your business and increase revenue.
5. Additional Services: A high-level web developer will offer additional services to compliment your new website such as search engine optimization, video and multimedia, and statistical tracking-all things your business will need to be successful in this Web 2.0 era.

Today we launched our interactive Holiday Greeting to showcase our abilities as a full-service Chicago website design company and to offer special incentives for ‘09.

If your business has a custom website design, and you haven’t been living under a rock for the past two years, chances are you have heard of Twitter. Twitter is a social media tool, that when used intelligently, can drive traffic to your site, increase brand awareness, and skyrocket your sales.

According to Wikipedia, “Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service, that allows its users to send and read other users’ updates (otherwise known as tweets), which are text-based posts of up to 140 characters in length.”

What this means for you, is the ability to communicate with others on an endless amount of topics related to your business as often as you like, and the potential for your sound-bite message to be viewed by more than 3 million Twitter users.

Twitter users like me, post Tweets about a variety of things like upcoming events, the release of new products/services, questions or suggestions, and links to cool articles or sites.

It’s important to keep in mind that Twitter is about real people. It is not a tool for spamming or cramming your marketing messages down the throats of those who could care less. To be successful with Twitter you need to commit to updating your tweets on a daily basis, be genuine, honest, and thought provoking, and realize the value of the relationships and connections you make via this social media tool.

If you are ready to take the plunge into Twitter or other social media applications, we are a Chicago web development company that has the expertise, understanding, and passion that you need to succeed.
