How to Choose the Best Web Designing Company in Goa — 10 Questions to Ask | SANCTIFY

SANCTIFY — the best web designing company in Goa since 2012 — is writing this knowing you might not choose us. And that’s fine. What matters is that you make an informed decision and don’t waste ₹50,000+ on a website that fails. Here are 10 questions that separate serious web design companies from amateurs pretending.

10 Questions to Ask Any Web Designing Company in Goa

1. Can I See Live Websites You’ve Built (Not Just Screenshots)?

Screenshots can be faked or borrowed. Ask for live URLs of websites currently running. Visit them on your phone. Check their speed (PageSpeed Insights). Look at their Google ranking. If an agency can’t show you 10+ live, working websites — they don’t have the experience they claim.

SANCTIFY has 100+ live websites viewable on request.

2. Who Will Actually Build My Website — You or a Freelancer You Outsource To?

Many “agencies” in Goa are one person with a laptop who outsources to freelancers on Fiverr. Your point of contact doesn’t touch the code. Ask explicitly: who designs, who develops, who does SEO, and are they in-house?

SANCTIFY has an in-house team — designer, developer, SEO specialist, project manager. All under one roof in Vasco, Goa.

3. Will My Website Be Custom-Designed or a Template?

Templates cost ₹3,000. Custom design costs ₹30,000+. Both are valid — but you should know which you’re getting. If someone charges ₹50,000 and delivers a ₹3,000 ThemeForest template with your logo swapped — you’ve been overcharged by 10x.

SANCTIFY discloses upfront: custom Figma design → code, OR premium theme customization — clearly priced for each.

4. What Happens After Launch — Do You Provide Support?

A website without maintenance is a security liability within 6 months. WordPress gets 15+ updates per year. Plugins need patches. SSL needs renewal. Ask: what’s included in post-launch support? What does ongoing maintenance cost?

SANCTIFY includes 30-90 days support in every project + offers annual maintenance packages (₹10,000-25,000/year).

5. Is SEO Included or an Add-On?

A website without basic SEO is invisible on Google. Many designers charge extra for “SEO setup” that should be standard. Ask what SEO is included: meta tags? Heading structure? Schema? Page speed optimization? Search Console setup?

SANCTIFY includes on-page SEO, schema markup, sitemap, Search Console, and Analytics setup in every project. No extra charge.

6. How Many Revision Rounds Are Included?

Design is subjective. You’ll want changes. Unlimited revisions sounds generous but usually means the designer doesn’t have a structured process. 2-3 revision rounds with clear feedback cycles is healthy and professional.

SANCTIFY offers 2 revision rounds at design stage (Figma) and 1 round at development stage. 95% of projects finalize within these.

7. Will I Own the Website Code and Content?

Some agencies hold your website hostage — you can’t move to another host or developer without losing everything. Ask explicitly: do I own the code, the design files, the content, and the domain? Can I transfer hosting anytime?

SANCTIFY: You own everything. Code, design, content, domain, hosting account. 100% transferable.

8. What’s Your Actual Timeline — With Milestones?

“4-6 weeks” means nothing without milestones. Ask for: Week 1 = what? Week 2 = what? When do I see the first design? When do I review? When does it go live? What happens if you miss a deadline?

SANCTIFY provides a milestone document before starting — with dates, deliverables, and review checkpoints.

9. Can You Show Me Websites That RANK on Google?

Any designer can make a pretty site. But does it actually appear when someone Googles your service? Ask: which of your client websites rank on Google’s first page for their target keywords? This separates web designers from web designers who understand business.

SANCTIFY’s own site ranks for 1000+ keywords. Our client sites rank for “hotel in [location] Goa,” “dentist in Panaji,” “restaurant [area]” — verifiable in Search Console.

10. What’s Your Google Rating and How Long Have You Been Operating?

Check Google Reviews. Check how long they’ve been in business. A 6-month-old company with 5 reviews is not the same as a 14-year company with 128 reviews at 4.8★. Experience compounds. Reputation is earned.

SANCTIFY: 14+ years (since 2012). 4.8★ Google rating. 128+ verified reviews. Physical office in Vasco, Goa.
