Are
you looking forward to make your Toronto based business go online in few days?
After you purchase your business domain name and hire a web hosting company
what you need is a web developer. The web developer or web designer is the one
who would create your website i.e. put contents in it and design it to make it useful
and attractive. There are basically three ways you can get your website
developed. Firstly, you can use free software to build it from the scratch.
This is a DIY solution but it is never recommended for business websites. Web
development software is okay if it is your personal website. The other two ways
include hiring web development companies
or freelancers. Both of them are hired for business websites but here goes a
comparative study between the two that would help you to take a judicious
decision.
Cost involved
Since
cost is the first criterion about which most people enquire, let it be on the
top! Any web design company has to bear a huge amount of costs due to salary of
staffs, maintenance and administration cost, marketing cost, etc. A freelancer
on the other hand has got minimum expenses as he or she has almost no overhead
cost. Therefore, freelancers would charge much less than a web design company.
Quality of work
Since,
you are having your business in Toronto you would be able to hire a good Toronto web development firm without
much hassle. The quality to be offered by them would be quite high because of
their experience and professional attitude towards the work. Freelancers on the
other hand are likely to be less experienced and have a lesser professional
attitude as they are involved with web designing as part timers.
Reliability
When
it comes to the question of reliability a Toronto
web design company would be a more reliable option than any freelancer. The
reason is that the company has got a registered office in Toronto and they
remain liable for any kind of damage caused by not delivering the work,
partially delivering or not doing the work properly. Moreover, a web design
company has to maintain their reputation so they will not do anything that
would hamper their goodwill. On the other hand, a freelancer is generally
contacted online and you do not have any scope for asking for any compensation
from them.
After sales
service
After
they deliver you the website, a good web development firm would always keep in
touch with you. You would be able to get their help in case of any problem
faced later on. A freelancer, on the other hand, delivers you a website and
later on becomes untraceable and you will have to hire some other web developer
who might not even know the codes with which the website was built.
Conclusion
Having
considered all the above points it is better to hire a web development
Toronto firm even if they charge a little more than freelancers because
of their better quality, higher reliability and continued services.
