Egypt's web design market is crowded: professional agencies, talented freelancers, and unfortunately many pretenders. Your website isn't a side expense โ it's your business front for years. Here are 7 practical criteria to judge any web design company before signing.
1. Ask for live websites โ not design mockups
Request links to real, running sites and test them yourself: speed, mobile, buttons. Behance screenshots are one thing; a working site receiving customers is another. See our live work here.
2. Ask about SEO before design
A beautiful site that doesn't appear on Google is a billboard in the desert. Ask: proper meta titles? sitemap? loading speed? Vague answers = keep searching.
3. An admin panel you can actually use
You must be able to edit texts, images and prices without paying the company for every change. Ask for a panel demo before signing.
4. Clear written pricing and contract
Serious companies publish prices or provide detailed quotes: page count, timeline, revisions, post-delivery support. Early vagueness becomes late disputes.
5. Who owns the domain and hosting?
A trap many fall into: the domain must be registered in YOUR name โ not the agency's. Otherwise you're renting your site, not owning it.
6. Post-launch support
Ask: if the site goes down at 11pm, what happens? Is there a maintenance package? Who handles backups?
7. Communication itself is a signal
If replies are slow while you're still a paying prospect, imagine after signing. Sales-stage communication is the most honest indicator.
