How To Hire The Perfect Web Designer For Your Small Business

Open Forum: How To Hire The Perfect Web Designer For Your Small Business

Jolie O’Dell pumps Garry Tan for advice on criteria small businesses should use when selecting a Web designer.


“If you’re looking to hire a Web designer, you probably have dozens of questions swirling around in your head: How do I really know if this “kid” is as good as he says he is? Will a work-from-home designer slack off and overcharge me? Will my website look awful if I use a cheaper designer from overseas?

Garry Tan knows more than most do about hiring great Web design talent. As the designer-in-residence for a Y Combinator, a highly influential startup incubator, he’s compiling a directory of the best Web design talent around the world, which means he spends a lot of time poring over portfolios, client lists and resumes.”
