The following are some red flags that could mean you need to seek out a better designer:
1. They don't have a website or the website is "under construction."
2. They are not active in the web development community.
3. They don't use social media.
4. They have no address or use a PO Box.
5. They ask for 55% to 100% of contract fee upfront.
6. They offer prices that sound too good to be true.
7. They don't accept credit cards, they demand cash or PayPal.
8. Check their code. Does it use the font tag? if so, they are amateurs, as this tag has been deprecated for years.
9. Ask what program they'll use to code your site. This is a trick question. If the answer is anything other than "by hand," they're a hack.
