The best site is the world is not worth a lot if it can't be found online. A terrible-looking and functioning site that does well on Google is also sub-optimal.
A business should have the best of both worlds: a great-looking website that is found online. One without the other is like a car with four great tires and no engine.
Here is a simple way to find a web designer that can help you be found online.
Ask any prospective web design team to show you the last five websites they have designed from start to finish. If they haven't five completed sites, seriously consider someone else. Imagine hiring an auto repair person who has not done five tune-ups or brake jobs!
Then ask them to give you ten keywords they are targeting for people to find their own website. For example, it could be "web design Hawaii" or "online marketing specialist". If they don't have a list, they are amateurs and should not be trusted with your website. If you can't find them on Google, how are they going to help you be found?
Seeing what they can do for their clients is important. Likewise, seeing how well they can market their own business online will show you their skills. Any reputable web development company will, without hesitation, show you their most recent projects, and they should be willing to show qualified potential clients their own online marketing prowess.
