One of the biggest challenges facing blog owners is keeping their site looking fresh without losing their appeal. Currently, there are thousands of free themes out there that can be used by anyone, but there are few designs that are not already in use. For blog owners that want to stand out from the crowd, these templates usually will not work. Unless they have the capability to do their own special designs, this often means hiring a professional. Anyone, that has followed my blog over the last 1.5 years knows that I lack a certain… Je ne sais quoi… artistic flair. I have been considering hiring a design firm to help…
Stylish Web Design offers some very unique services for websites as well as blogs. They specialize in assisting site owners with completely new looks for their blog designs, as well as logo design and search engine optimization. Since there are many entrants in this particular field, this is a competitive industry. Does Stylish Web Design and their design blog have what it takes to stand out from the crowd? Let’s take a look.
We liked the fact that they are very open about their past clients. This shows two major things. First, they are proud of their completed designs and second, their clients are happy with the finished results and more than pleased to allow the finished results to be seen. In looking through Stylish Web Design’s profile we also noted something that was quite interesting.
Often, when you are designing multiple web sites, it is all too easy to fall back on the same overall design. The colors may be different, but we have found in the past that many design firms simply turn out the same old look, time after time. Stylish Web Design’s portfolio was quite varied and each site they listed looked remarkably different. The layouts used for text were new and visually exciting and we appreciated their attention to little design details that really make a site stand out.
We also appreciated the fact that they do offer a custom web design free quote. This is very helpful for website and blog owners that aren’t quite sure if they are ready to switch to a new design and offers them an opportunity to see what a third party would do if given the freedom to overhaul their site. This is an important part of the design process and can only benefit site owners. (I have requested just such a quote for redesigning this blog… as soon as I have a response I will add that to this post.)
Overall, we found that Stylish Web Design provided a nice, broad range of services for custom web design and blog design. They are up to date with all of the latest techniques, which can only benefit a site owner in the end. Their own site was a very good billboard for their service, and showed that they do know how to do complex layouts very well, and still make sure that they display correctly in numerous different browsers.
If you’ve been thinking about changing up your blog design, we highly recommend taking advantage of their free quote service and reading their web design blog . This may get you started on the road to a completely fresh and new web design that will keep your readers engaged with your content.
So what do you think? Without guidance as to my budget or to the costs of Stylish Web Design. Do you think Rate Ladder could benefit from a design over haul? Please leave a comment…
