Outsource Development or Do lt Yourself?

Outsource Development or Do lt
Yourself?
Unless you have plenty of experience in
web development, and youre up to date
on the latest standards, it's always
recommended to let a pro handle it. It may
cost a fair bit, but offering a good
experience for mobile users is no longer
optional (as you've seen in the previous
chapter, they are simply too many to
ignore).
Types Of Mobile Sites

Skilled developers can be found in many
places, but the easiest is probably looking
on the larger freelancing sites like E-lance
and oDesk. There are literally hundreds of
_ developers and designers there who
specialize in optimizing websites for
mobile viewing.
The most important thing to keep in mind
when outsourcing web design is that you
need someone who communicates well.
This can olen be a problem with the
cheapest developers, as they may not be
fluent in English or may live in a time zone
far from you.


If you prefer, you can always hire someone
local through, for example, Craigslist. This
may make communication a lot easier,
and help ensure the person youre hiring
can be trusted. Most of the time this will
cost more than hiring someone online, but
the peace of mind may be worth it.
The alternative, if your site is mainly
informational, is using a platform like
WordPress along with a responsive theme
(that you can install yourself). Since
WordPress is the most popular online
publishing tool today, chances are your
site may already be running on it. In that
case, you could either look for a
responsive theme yourself, or simply hire
a WordPress developer to make one for
you (which will most likely cost a lot less
than if you had a custom developed
website).
