How to do web design outsourcing when everyone claims to produce perfect quality?

I have tried for the past 2 months to find anyone who could produce a dating site for me, but every company/individual so far have been lacking in quality. Many spelling mistakes, error links, non-current web pages, possible phishing sites, etc. Is there a place which I can trust to %26#039;authorize%26#039; top quality web designers/programmers so I am assured that I will obtain a high quality product instead of something which will obviously fail? (But still at outsourcing prices, i.e. 50% or less than Swedish web designer/programmer prices.)



Initially I thought it would be sufficient with the ISO 9000, but several claim to have that, and still can not show quality results.

Find sites you do like



Look at the bottom of their home pages for the names of the companies that created those sites



Contract with them



Remember my client%26#039;s favorite caveat, however: %26quot;Good, fast and cheap: Pick two.%26quot;

as the saying goes, you pay peanuts.. you get monkeys..



to get iso9000 acreditation, well a company has to pay for that and pass the cost on to you..



a lot of companies outsource their coding to india etc anyway where costs are cheaper.



it would be better to employ someone in house that knows about such things..



Other Replys:%26quot;If you want nice clean oats, you have to PAY more. If you are willing to settle for oats that have been recycled through a horse, it%26#039;s considerably cheaper.%26quot; That%26#039;s the gist of your problem.



But even without that tossed into the mix, nobody has as many top-notch programmers as they need. Even if a company were fully staffed today, the fact that they have great programmers would result in a lot of new business, and they would have to hire second-tier people to handle the load.



Realize that there will need to be several iterations to get *exactly* what you want, even if there are top-notch people working on it, because they can%26#039;t read your mind to figure out what you want.



Make payment contingent on producing acceptable results.



Specify that you want a data-driven site, that allows you to change the design of the pages without touching the code. Specify also that you want strings in a separate file, so that you can correct grammar and spelling, or translate the site to a different language, without touching the code.



Good luck. Whenever you hire someone else to write mission-critical software, instead of doing in in-house, you%26#039;re risking your business....



Other Replys:Rather hire few freelancers to code it for you. Never pay them afront. Check http://k.aplis.net/
