ResultumChoosing who builds your website is a decision that lasts for years — a good agency will bring you customers, a bad one will leave you with a site that needs rebuilding from scratch. How do you tell them apart? Here are 7 things worth checking before you sign a contract.
1. Portfolio and past work
See what the agency has done before. Do the websites in their portfolio look modern, load fast, and work well on mobile? Real projects say more than any promise.
2. Do they think about results, not just looks
A good agency asks about your business goals: who you want to attract, and what action you want the visitor to take. If the conversation revolves entirely around colors and graphics, that's a warning sign.
3. SEO as standard
A website nobody can find on Google is a business card sitting in a drawer. Make sure your developer takes care of SEO basics during the build itself, not as a paid add-on tacked on at the end.
4. Speed and technology
Ask about loading time and responsiveness. A slow site turns customers away and ranks worse on Google. Modern, lightweight technology is standard today, not a luxury.
5. Transparent pricing and scope
A good offer clearly states what's included in the price: number of pages, content, SEO, support. Be wary of "website for 500 PLN" offers — they usually hide gaps that surface later.
6. Support after launch
What happens after the site goes live? Who handles fixes, updates, backups? The relationship doesn't end on launch day — maintenance matters just as much as the build itself.
7. Communication
Pay attention to how the agency communicates even during the quoting stage. Fast, specific answers signal a good working relationship ahead. Chaos at the start usually gets worse, not better.
