How to choose who builds your website (without agency theatre)
Ask for live work, a clear process and someone who talks about visibility and maintenance. Invented portfolios show.
Choosing a studio is not comparing logos. It is deciding who will represent you online and whether they can maintain it when the business changes.
Ask for sites you can visit
If the portfolio cannot be opened, it is not a portfolio. Three real projects beat twenty template shots.
They should talk about being found
A pretty site nobody finds does not pay invoices. Ask about architecture, technical SEO and what happens after launch.
Be wary of catalogue prices and ranking guarantees
A fixed price without seeing the current site or languages is usually marketing. So is guaranteed first place.
Ask who answers
If you do not know who designs and who codes, the project dissolves. At AVOIRON you speak with the person doing the work.
