In a world where digital prowess often equates to business success, the importance of web development and mobile services cannot be understated. From startups to established corporations, these services are essential to keep pace with the ever-evolving digital landscape and to cater to a range of Clients with increasing expectations. Today, we share our experience with you in web and mobile development, focusing on the benefits for businesses, the problems solved, the questions we are often asked, and more.
When do Clients most often choose web or mobile development services?
Here are several common scenarios we experienced that inspire Clients to look for professional web or mobile development services.
When they need a redesign of their website
A common reason driving Clients to seek web or mobile development services is the need to redesign their existing website. The world of web design is constantly evolving, with aesthetics, navigation, and UX trends changing often. As such, a website that was cutting-edge some years ago may feel outdated today. The need to modernize the user interface, optimize the user experience, or simply add new functionality often urges clients to employ professional web developers.
When they need updates for their website
Websites are working tools that need regular updates, maintenance, and tweaks to keep them running smoothly and securely. Faced with issues like broken links, outdated content, slow load times, or even severe security concerns like hacking, clients often turn to us to rectify these issues efficiently. We debug, enhance security features, update content, and ensure the website is SEO-optimized and mobile-friendly, thereby improving the platform’s overall performance and security.
When they are in need of a new provider because the current one is ineffective
Sometimes clients may find their current development service provider not meeting their expectations, in terms of punctuality, communication, quality of work, or technical expertise. In such instances, clients would begin looking for a new web or mobile development service provider. They seek a partner that respects deadlines, communicates effectively, understands their needs, is technically proficient, and offers an excellent quality-price ratio.
When they have an idea for a new online business, and they know the market and the industry, but they lack the IT skills
Many entrepreneurs and businesses understand their industry and market well and have great ideas for online businesses or applications. However, they might lack the necessary IT skills to transform their ideas into functional, user-friendly online platforms. In such cases, we bring our technical expertise to the table, transforming an idea into a fully-fledged website or app, while the business owners can focus on what they do best – understanding the market, the industry, and the customers.
Other reasons
Web and mobile services exist to address a variety of issues, including maintaining system performance amidst increased traffic. Clients often approach web and mobile service providers for their expertise in optimizing server load-balancing, caching, and efficient database management to ensure seamless user experiences even during peak usage times. Additionally, with the ever-present threat of cyber-attacks, Clients require robust data security measures. Service providers employ advanced encryption protocols, secure APIs, and constant system monitoring to protect systems against such threats successfully. Another frequent issue that Clients face is non-standard integration with external systems. Web and mobile service professionals specialize in creating custom Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and leveraging middleware solutions to enable seamless integrations between diverse systems. Lastly, when Clients aim to scale their platforms to new markets, it is crucial to adapt such platforms to align with local legal norms. This may involve implementing specific data handling practices, adapting payment gateways, or designing interfaces that comply with locale-specific regulations. Through a combination of technical skills and comprehensive industry knowledge, web and mobile service providers work to create adaptable, secure, and efficient platforms that address each of these issues effectively.
What issues do web and mobile development solve?
The outsourcing of web and mobile development, in particular, has proven to be an effective solution to several key issues faced by businesses.
Clients don’t have to use their own teams for the task
Building an in-house web and mobile development team involves a lot of time, resources, and expenses. The recruitment process, training, provision of work infrastructure, and ongoing costs such as salaries, benefits, and overheads can strain a company’s budget and attention.
This is where we come in. Companies can leverage the expertise of seasoned professionals without the need to hire and maintain their own team. Outsourcing eliminates the need for the recruitment and training process, saving time, and reducing associated costs significantly.
Moreover, web and mobile development is a rapidly evolving sector, requiring continuous up-skilling and knowledge of the latest trends and technologies. Outsourcing providers are at the forefront of these changes, offering access to the latest know-how without the Client having to invest in continuous training for an in-house team.
Clients can focus on the business while the hired team focuses on development
In any business, invariably, the primary areas of focus should be product or service innovation, business growth, and customer satisfaction. Spending time and resources managing a tech-development team can divert attention from these core business areas, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises or startups, where resources can be limited.
Our help enables businesses to focus on their key areas. Management and personnel may work on developing their products, strategizing for business growth, and enhancing customer relationships.
Developers focus on creating a high-quality web and mobile presence for the business. We handle everything from designing user-friendly interfaces, implementing SEO strategies, ensuring data security, to providing tech support. This division of labor ensures all aspects of the business, both core and supportive, get the attention they deserve from the appropriate experts.
Other benefits of web & mobile services
Poor website performance can lead to a substantial drop in user engagement, with studies suggesting that nearly 20% of users might leave a website due to slow loading times, poor navigation, or unfriendly mobile interfaces. Web and mobile service providers can step in and rectify these issues, optimizing website structure, improving loading speed, and ensuring cross-platform compatibility to enhance overall user experience, thereby retaining user interest and engagement. Moreover, many businesses also grapple with the challenge of online visibility. A well-structured and optimally designed website is more reputable in the eyes of Google bots, which influences search engine rankings. Web and mobile service providers utilize techniques such as SEO optimization, keyword integration, backlink generation, and quality content creation to improve websites’ visibility on search engine results pages. By addressing these crucial aspects, web and mobile services play a significant role in improving online visibility, driving user engagement, and ultimately boosting revenue.
What are the main provisions of a web and mobile offer?
First, we investigate and sum up what the Client needs. This is followed by our recommendations for project implementation. Here, we mention the technologies and the form of project management (Agile, Waterfall). We show the way we approach project design and QA and whether there is a need for business and technology workshops before the work begins.
Next, we discuss the settlement model, either fixed (we agree on a specific sum) or in the Time & Material form (the Client pays for the hours worked).
Finally, we provide a table with a cost estimate, pointing out – in most cases – that this is a preliminary estimate, usually in the form of price ranges with a division between individual functionalities.
What are the questions usually asked by Clients?
Clients most often ask about the costs and deadlines. Other important inquiries refer to technology recommendations as well as our portfolio. At that point, we usually try to first talk about their business needs and ask a lot of technical questions. In most cases, the Client is unaware of what should be included in the project when it comes to its technical side. Clients usually come with a very general concept, so our role is to build their awareness and support them by providing more details.
