Website laten maken Antwerpen - Websites die niet sucken

Website laten maken: hoe begin je daar aan?

Je zit ongetwijfeld met een heleboel vragen:

Waar moet ik op letten bij het laten maken van een website?
Hoe kies ik voor de juiste partij?
Zullen ze mijn wensen respecteren?
Hoe kan ik er voor zorgen dat ik geen kat in de zak koop?
Zal mijn project binnen budget en op tijd worden opgeleverd?

Logische vragen. Want stel dat je in zee gaat met een webdesign bureau en het loopt helemaal mis. Dan ben je een heleboel geld kwijt, zonder resultaat: een website die niet aan jouw (design) verwachtingen voldoet, die niet hoog scoort in Google, die geen leads genereert, etc.

Kortom een website die suckt.

Hoe vermijd ik dat?

Maarten, founder of web design studio Heave in Antwerp, having a consultation with a colleague about Wireframes.

Doe beroep op zekerheid: beproefde werkwijze

We hebben met Heave al meer dan 60+ professionele websites gemaakt in bijna evenveel industrieën. Al die ervaring en know-how bundelden we in een proces dat zich keer op keer heeft bewezen.

In 4 stappen maken we een website die niet suckt, maar je wel meer leads, conversies en omzet oplevert. Doorheen het proces word je actief betrokken en kan je feedback geven.

Zo ben jij zeker van het eindresultaat: binnen budget, boven je verwachtingen.
