Questions To Ask Your Web Developer

If you’re hiring someone to build your website, there’s more to it than simply calling up a random website company and ordering a new website.

The tourism industry has whole-heartedly embraced on-line technologies for a very good reason – that’s where the customers are. Most hotel rooms these days are booked online, with many visitors coming without ever calling and speaking to anyone local before they even set foot in the region. Websites for tourism operators are often the only opportunity there is to connect with visitors before they actually show up.

But if you aren’t immersed in the online culture (and even if you are) there are a lot of things you need to know. This one-page document from Prince Edward Island’s Analytic-OR lists some of the basic questions you should be asking your web developer. We think the first one is very critical – we’ve seen tourism businesses lose their website, realizing too late that the person or company they hired to create their website didn’t give them full ownership.
