Fees for web design are usually charged as a fixed project price or by the hour, and the total depends on the scope and features of the project. Choosing a freelancer or an agency, and the experience or specialism of the designer, also affects the cost. The Web Designer price guide gives typical prices in Ireland, so you can compare any quote you receive against it.

No register or regulator is named for this work, so there is no official body to check the firm against. Ask about the team's experience, examples of past projects and any training in design or development. You can also ask who will actually do the work on your project.

A first consultation usually covers your business goals, who your customers are, what you want the new site to do and what you already have in place. Ask whether the consultation is free, how long it takes and what you will receive afterwards, such as a written proposal. It is usual to leave with a clear outline of scope and next steps.

Bring a clear idea of what your business does, who its customers are and what you want visitors to do. Gather any existing branding, logos, photographs and examples of sites you like, along with a rough budget range and the date you need the work finished. Having these ready helps the first conversation go further.
