If you’re starting from scratch with a new website or looking to revamp your existing site, choosing a local SEO and web design firm is the smart choice. Sure you can hire a firm from across the country – or even across the world – but there are distinct advantages to working with a local Seattle web designer. Let’s look at just a few of these benefits…

#1 Face To Face Personal Attention

Even though business is done every day all around the world via Skype, email, text and phone, the best way to ensure you get the results you want is to sit down and talk. With Seattle SEO Consultant, you’ll get the kind of attention you can only get meeting and talking in person. We take the time to really understand your business and your needs in a way that can’t be done remotely. Knowing who you are, what you do, your mission and your philosophy will guide the design process.

#2 Local Verifiable Testimonials

Any web design firm will offer up testimonials when asked, but they’re more meaningful when they come from other local businesses that you can contact to discuss the process and their satisfaction. Not only will you be able to check out our clients’ websites, but you can call them up. Talk to them about their experience with Seattle SEO Consultant and find out how working with us enhanced their branding, SEO, site traffic and, ultimately, their profitability.

#3 That Seattle Vibe

If you do a majority of your business in the local Seattle market, you need a design firm that understands the nuances of doing business here and will know how to communicate effectively with local businesses and consumers. Simply put, a web firm across the world or even across the country will struggle to understand the unique nature of our local economy, what consumers expect and how we do business differently than in other areas of the country.

#4 Accessibility

It can be a hassle to communicate with a web firm that does business on a different schedule and time zone than you.  Working with a local Pacific Northwest firm ensures communication will be more convenient and on your terms. And to take it a step further, Seattle SEO Consultant is available 24/7 to address any urgent issues that may crop up outside of normal business hours. You should never be left waiting by your web firm for answers you need.

#5 Accountability and Recourse

You never want to have issues when you hire a firm to work with you, but sometimes there are hiccups. If you work with a design firm across the country or even in another country and there’s a problem, work isn’t completed or work isn’t done to your agreed-upon specifications, you may need to pursue legal recourse. This can be impossible with an international firm and far too costly with a firm in another state. Working local gives you peace of mind.

Buying Local Goes for High Tech Too

One last benefit to choosing a local Seattle web firm is that transacting with Seattle businesses improves our local economy and community. These are just a few of the benefits of working with a local Seattle web designer for your website design project.
