Investing in great Web design is one of those things that is hard for many people to reconcile mentally. For starters, it’s really difficult to know if the person you intend to hire is legitimate or not, and if you don’t know how to differentiate the studs from the also-rans, then you’re basically investing in a crapshoot. To make matters worse, this crapshoot can get expensive!
And then, of course, you have the issue of agility. Two weeks after you get your new design up and running, you decide to add a few features. Will the current architecture handle it? Is your design scalable and flexible enough to accommodate this, or will it fold up like a lawn chair, leaving you with unstyled, 10pt text and a horizontal scrollbar?
