Nobody likes slow websites. The challenge is to keep as many features as possible, while keeping the page load time low.

We see it all over the web, development companies that create sites in nearly every language and technology.  Do they really claim to be experts in everything?  How do they find the time to keep up with all the advancements and changes for so many systems?

In a previous blog post I discussed how your requirements effect the budget for your project.  In this post we'll get more specific with time and money saving tips for working with developers, designers, or marketing firms.

How to host your website or application is fairly straightforward.  There are really only three choices:  Shared hosting, VPS, or dedicated server.  The most important choice is often overlooked however.  

The American economy has demonstrated that outsourcing some types of labor overseas can be beneficial to both business and consumer markets. While this may work for manufacturing roles, it is by no means conducive to quality software development.

Virtually all websites and web applications start with a requirements document, but rarely are these first attempts very helpful to designers or developers.  To be successful you must express your needs and desires to the people who will be working on your project in their language.
