How to Choose Between Them
Here are tips to help you decide:
-
Define your budget first. Expect better results if you’re willing to pay a bit more for quality vs. going cheap.
-
Check recent work for the specific kind of site you need (portfolio, shop, service-based business, etc.).
-
Ask about site speed and mobile responsiveness—many people skip this, but Google and users care a lot.
-
Find someone who offers ongoing maintenance so your site doesn’t become outdated or vulnerable.
-
Make sure the company understands local needs (e.g. Marin county businesses, sustainability, small business culture).
