10 questions to ask before you hire a web developer or agency
Hiring someone to build your website, app or store? Ask these 10 questions first to avoid delays, hidden costs and developers who disappear.
Web development
Websites and web apps built to perform.
From a company website that turns visitors into enquiries to a full web platform your customers log in to. One senior team handles the design, the build and the launch, at a fixed price agreed before we start.
Free 30-minute call. No pitch deck. You leave with clear next steps, whether you hire us or not.

Signs your website is holding the business back
- Visitors can't tell what you do or who it's for within a few seconds.
- Pages are slow on a phone, which is where most of your visitors are.
- Your team copies data between spreadsheets and tools that don't talk to each other.
- Customers email to ask things they should be able to see in a portal.

Is this right for you?
An honest fit check
This is for you if
- Companies replacing a site that doesn't bring in work
- Customer and supplier portals
- Booking systems and internal dashboards
- Marketplaces and membership platforms
This may not fit if
- You'd rather pick a template and fill it in yourself
- An off-the-shelf tool already does 90% of what you need
- Nobody on your side can answer questions while we build
Questions
Web development: what people ask
Website or web application: which do I need?
A website tells people about your business and brings in enquiries. A web application does work: logins, bookings, dashboards, data. Many clients start with the website and add the application later. We'll tell you which fits on the call.
Do I need a full specification first?
No. Bring the problem and how the work happens today. We turn that into a written scope and designs you approve before any code is written.
Who owns the code?
You do, once the project is paid for. Hosting, domains and accounts are set up in your name.
Can you take over a project another team started?
Yes. We review the code first and tell you honestly whether to continue it or rebuild parts of it.
