Question: Am I not better off using a local web design agency?

Some clients are concerned that geographical distance can prove a problem when managing a web development project. However, in the world of web design, location is not an issue. Although we do like to have face-to-face meetings with our clients, much of the day-to-day management of a project can be done through email and telephone. Designs and development sites can be shown online, which in any case, is the best way to view them.
