How to Choose a Web Design Company in Timisoara — 7 Criteria That Make the Difference
You're looking for a web design company in Timisoara and don't know where to start. You've already received three different quotes, ranging from 300 to 3,000 EUR, and you don't understand why the gap is so wide. You've talked to a freelancer who promises everything in two weeks and an agency that says it needs two months. How do you make the right choice?
This question doesn't have a simple answer — but it does have clear criteria. Over 19 years in the Timisoara web design market, we've seen clients who chose well and clients who chose poorly. The difference was never just the price. It was the selection process.
Criterion 1 — Live Portfolio, Not Mockups
Every web design company shows beautiful images in its sales pitch. Few have live links to delivered projects you can test yourself. Ask explicitly for 5 links to live sites built in the last 12 months. Visit them on your phone. Run them through Google PageSpeed Insights. Our full portfolio is public and verifiable — that's the standard you should demand from any company.
Criterion 2 — A Clear Briefing and Approval Process
Ask: what does the process look like from signing the contract to launching the site? A professional company will walk you through the stages: brief, technical proposal, design in Figma, approval, development, testing, launch. If the answer is vague or there's no structured brief document, that's a red flag.
Criterion 3 — SEO Built In from the Start
Ask directly: which SEO elements are included in the website price? The right answer: URL structure, meta tags, XML sitemap, schema markup, optimized loading speed. If the answer is “we can add SEO later as a separate service,” it means the site will be built without an SEO foundation. Later on, you'll pay twice. See how we build SEO in from the start on our SEO services in Timisoara page.
Criterion 4 — Response Time and Communication
Send an email or a message through their website before you hire the company. How long does it take them to reply? If they take more than 24 hours before you're even a client, you'll wait much longer once you're a client with an urgent problem.
Criterion 5 — A Clear Contract with Deliverables and Deadlines
A professional contract specifies: exactly what will be delivered (number of pages, features, platforms), delivery deadlines, who provides the content, how many rounds of revisions are included, and what happens if deadlines are missed.
Criterion 6 — Defined Post-Launch Support
What happens if the site has a bug a week after launch? Who steps in, how fast, and at what cost? If there's no clear answer to this question, you'll be on your own after handover.
Criterion 7 — Pricing Transparency
The price of a website covers much more than hours of work: theme or plugin licenses, stock photos, staging hosting, third-party service setup. A transparent company explains what goes into the price. Our detailed pricing is public — use it as a benchmark.
Common Pitfalls to Avoid
– The lowest price — almost always means hidden compromises
– A promise of a guaranteed #1 ranking on Google — impossible, and a sign of unprofessionalism
– No contract, or a vague one — serious web design companies always provide clear documentation
– A portfolio with only static images or demo templates, not live projects
– Communication only over WhatsApp, with no email or ticketing system
