We are asked this question from time to time. Only in very rare circumstances would a build it yourself website be recommended. There are many website builders out there that allow you to create smaller website (just a few pages) and host it for a monthly fee. They are often optimized for mobile delivery and the pre-built templates allow simple modifications such as changing colors and adding photos. If, however, you need a larger site or if you want to use your site as the basis of an SEO project you would do better building a site that you have full control of. How fast your website loads and displays is important. Having total control of where elements are locasted is essential for SEO.
Website builders do not allow for you to do this, but a custom built website allows you to control every detail. You should also remember that once you sign-up to a website-builder, you are locked into their monthly payment for as long as you want the site to appear on the internet. You are tied to the provider you choose and cannot take your website anywhere else. A professionally built website by an expert web development company gives you the control you need. You are not tied to a particular web host and you can move your website to any provider you choose.
It takes longer than people generally realize to build a website. There is planning, preparation and execution. The quickest build is a landing page for PPC AD Campaigns, even the simplest of landing pages still takes time. Smaller projects generally take 6-8 weeks to complete while average projects generally take around 3 months. Larger scale web development projects can run six months on the low end. It is critical to allow plenty of time and plan ahead.
An account executive should meet with you prior to the start of any graphic concepts or coding followed by several meetings during the life cycle depending on the size and scope of the project. Meetings are essential for a successful project outcome and can be accomplished in person or remotely.
Stay way from Web Designers. A web designer typically does not have the proper skill set to develop and code your website. Generally their area of expertise stops in the graphical design space.

People often ask when should I start SEO? The SEO process starts before a single line of code is written. Successful search engine optimization starts in the planning phase of a website and is defined by the goals of the project. Content development is something we help our clients with on an on-going basis. We make sure each article or page produced is high quality and flows with the websites structure. Build it yourself websites are becoming more popular, but lack what we refer to as 'Technical SEO'. It is important that your website's code is built correctly and is optimized for speed and user experience.
There are best practices when it comes to website design. Items that seem simple, such as the placement of a call to action, can be the determining factor for success. Your project should only be entrusted to a team that has multiple skill sets including design and development.
