Find Freelance Website Designers and Developers

When you are looking for website design and development services, freelance website designers and developers offer an alternative to website design and development companies.

There are, of course, advantages and disadvantages to each option. Services from website design and development companies often cost more than a freelance website designer or developer, as a website design and development company will have more fixed overheads to build into the cost.

However, if their team consists of more than one website designer or developer, a website design and development company will often be able to take on a website design and development project more quickly than a freelance website designer or developer who is a one man band.

So it really is up to the client to decide what type of service they need, and this directory helps you to find both.

Do I need a Freelance Website Designer or Freelance Website Developer?

A common question is what type of service you need in order to have your website developed. The website design element includes the design of any logo, the selection and formatting of images to be used on the site and the design of the look and feel of the site.

Website developers and programmers tend to use code such as PHP or .NET to add functionality to a website.

There is a lot of overlap between the two, with some freelancers only doing website design, some only doing website development and some doing a bit of both.

So, when liaising with a freelancer, make sure you outline what you are looking for your site to do and ask whether they can undertake the whole job, or only one part of it. More often than not, website designers and developers know other freelancers who offer the bits they don't and will handle the whole project for you using a third party, or give you the details of a freelancer who can do the bits they can't.
