Help finding me a web designer !

Sat Jul 4, 2009, 8:36 AM
Hi everyone, I'm usually not into that journal stuff, but I need you help... :)


Ok, I've been using my blog for quite a while now ([link]), it's great and easy, but you will admit it doesn't look very professionnal...

So lately I've been trying to find a great web design firm (or freelance), but it's completely jungle out there.
I thought you just had to google "web designer", would get some nice results and just had to pick up the one you prefer. I was quite wrong :D


I don't want something very specific, I just want a nice pro portfolio (flash would totally be a must), shouldn't be that hard to find??
I've been through that company : [link] . Their work is totally what I am looking for (see an example here [link] , + you can admire the awesome work of the guy =p ). But look at their prices???!!! $3,200 for the complete package (+ $90/year for hosting), is getting a good website really that expensive??


So, if you have any idea (something you are using that you are very happy with, somebody you know who does some great work, etc...), I would really like to hear them :)


Thanks for your time!

I've been trying to get a professional website together for about 3 months now and from my research $3200 seems like quite a lot. You can buy flash templates from a lot of sites and these retail for about $50 to $150. Customising them just requires a little time and knowledge and then there's the obvious hosting price for which $90 sounds a bit above average. My advice would be to learn about flash and either make one yourself or to customise a template. It will take a bit of time but it's a lot cheaper and you can let your creativity free.

try doing research about hosting...it's a fair bit cheaper than what they have quoted you.
Also, research flash yourself, as the original comment says..there are even flash templates available free.

I have been learning HTML, and couldn't do anything I was happy with. So I don't think I will even try Flash, it's to much work...

Thanks anyway, I'll try to find some nice templates :)

Well, before talking about hosting I think I'll try to concentrate on a proper website :p

And same comment as above, it's to much work trying to learn flash (html is ok, but flash is so much more complicated :p)
