If you want to create high-quality software, a website, or a mobile application, choosing the right developer is crucial. A wrong choice can lead to project delays, bad code, and ultimately higher costs.
Know What You’re Paying For
When ordering a website or an e-commerce store, the first question is often: “How much does it cost?” Many companies offer cheap “ready-made solutions”, promising fast and affordable results (especially with WordPress sites). However, if you don’t fully understand what you’re paying for, you may later discover that a “cheap” website turns out to be more expensive than a properly built custom solution from the start.
Clients sometimes pay thousands of euros for a cheap pre-made WordPress template that depends on plugins. But when you need even the smallest changes, hidden costs start piling up:
🔸 A site dependent on plugins? ➝ Plugin licenses expire, causing continuous costs.
🔸 Speed optimization? ➝ You’ll need to hire a developer.
🔸 Design changes? ➝ Many templates limit major changes or require additional payments.
🔸 Security updates? ➝ You have to pay regularly to keep your site up-to-date and secure.
🔸 Support and maintenance? ➝ If something breaks, who will fix it?
In the end, you might pay more than if you had just chosen a custom solution tailored to your needs from the beginning.
How to Find the Right Developer?
If you want a proper website, it’s essential to find the right developer who delivers quality work without hidden costs.
✔ Don’t choose a developer based only on price!
✔ Check their previous work and ask for client feedback.
✔ Make sure they’re not selling a pre-made template as a “custom solution.”
✔ Agree on clear terms – what’s included and what comes at an extra cost.
Ask for Technical Explanations – Even if You’re Not an Expert
A good developer can explain complex things simply. If they can justify why they make certain choices, you can be sure they know what they’re doing.
If a developer’s answers are vague or they say “that’s just how it works”, consider it a red flag.
Code Is Not Just Random Chaos
When choosing a developer, you need to ensure they understand what happens behind the scenes rather than just throwing together random elements and code.
Think of it this way:
❌ Bad code is like an old, cheap car – it smokes, breaks down, and barely works. It’s slow, inefficient, and expensive to fix in the long run.
✅ Good code is like a supercar engine – optimized, fast, reliable, and gives you a strong advantage over competitors.
If your website is poorly coded:
❌ It’s slow – Visitors leave, and your SEO rankings drop.
❌ It has security risks – Hackers can easily exploit it.
❌ It’s unoptimized – Harder to find on Google.
❌ Changes are difficult – Even small updates require big fixes.
If your website is well-coded:
✅ It’s fast – Faster load times mean more customers and sales.
✅ It’s secure – Protects against cyber attacks.
✅ It’s SEO-friendly – Google prefers well-optimized sites.
✅ It’s flexible – Future changes are easy and quick.✅ See on SEO-sõbralik – Google eelistab hästi optimeeritud lehti.
✅ See on paindlik – Kui vajad tulevikus muudatusi, saab need kiiresti ja lihtsalt teha.
