How to Compare Offers Hints
 
Performance and Price
 
If you need a website to be developed you will recognize that there are many people offering you this service. Professional agencies, but also the young son of your neighbor who otherwise always steals the delicious pears from your tree.

You need to compare the different offers. Despite of that we are capable to compete very well with others through our European price structure, we recommend that you not only look for the best price, but also for what you get for that price.

Ask the different developers the following questions and write down their answers (or excuses) for later comparison:
 
1.   Amount of web space in MB
2.   Amount of e-mail addresses
3.   Storage capacity of each e-mail in MB
4.   Amount of monthly data transfer in GB
5.   Amount of web pages in your packages
6.   Free streaming broadcast or not
7.   Free amount of text?
8.   Free amount of photos or graphics?
9.   Free amount of special effects?
10.   Free consulting?
11.   Free maintenance training? Or update costs?
12.   Free broadcast training?
13.   Extra costs for database
14.   Third-party costs
15.   Years of IT experience, certified
