- Usability - Design does play a heavy role in the development of your web project. Ensure the company you choose has strong visitor usability and user-friendly interaction knowledge. Usability is how visitors will interact with your website and how effectively they reach your end goal.
- Development Team - The company you choose should have an in-house development team.

You don't want to be chasing an invisible rabbit down a hole should things be affected by an unforeseen event.
