Outsource Web Design Development

“How do I find people to outsource my web design development work to that will understand what I need done without me doing it?”

The most expensive thing you can do is to ask someone to just “Handle my web design and development for me!”

Why?

Because very few people can handle ALL aspects of developing and designing a website effectively. They’ll just turn around and outsource the parts that you could find someone to do yourself (a lot cheaper).

So, outsourcing web design / development actually breaks down into the following areas:

  • Domain setup
  • Web hosting setup
  • WordPress installation
  • Graphical “look and feel” (theme)
  • Header Graphic
  • Text and graphical content layout (formatting)
  • Database / Email Database setup

Each of these items can be outsourced relatively inexpensively compared with trying to outsource everything on the list to a single party.

So how do you outsource your web design development?

Here are 3 simple steps for outsourcing EACH of the tasks individually.

Step 1: Define the exact tasks you want done and in which order (like I did above).

Step 2: Go somewhere like Fiverr or VWorker and find people who have already done each specific task you need done (these won’t be the same people for each task). Sort them based on the feedback they’ve received on past jobs. Hire the one that looks the best for each task.

Step 3: Outsource each task, in order, until your website gets completely set up with the features you need.

Keep it simple! I’ve been designing and developing websites since 1997. The biggest mistake I see people make is they get too complicated out of the box. Keep it simple, get a good design done up front, then develop and expand your web over time.

Follow these three simple steps and you can outsource web design development very effectively and quickly!
