Choosing who builds your website is a bigger decision than choosing the design itself. A good partner saves you time and money for years; a poor one leaves you with a slow, hard-to-edit site and no one to call. Use this checklist when comparing web design companies in Yangon and across Myanmar.

1. Look at real, live websites

Ask for links to websites they have actually built and launched — not just screenshots. Open them on your phone. Do they load quickly? Do they look good on a small screen? Hotels, schools and local brands are a good sign that a company can handle real business needs.

2. Ask what is included in the price

Compare total cost, not the headline number. Confirm whether the quote includes the domain, hosting, SSL and business email. Our website cost guide explains the usual extras.

3. Check the platform

Ask what the site will be built on. A platform like WordPress lets you edit your own content. If a company builds everything custom with no easy editing, you may depend on them for every small change. See WordPress vs custom.

4. Confirm mobile-first design

Most visitors will open your site on a phone. Make sure responsive design is included, not an optional extra.

5. Ask about SEO

Search engine optimisation should be part of the build: clean page structure, fast loading, proper titles and descriptions. Read our SEO checklist and ask the company how they handle each point.

6. Understand the timeline

Get a realistic schedule in writing. Be cautious of promises like "your website in 24 hours" for anything beyond a very simple page. A typical business website with design, content and testing takes several weeks.

7. Ask about support after launch

What happens when something breaks or you need an edit? Look for:

  • Included monthly edit time
  • A support response time you can rely on
  • Backups, so mistakes can be undone

8. Read the terms and refund policy

Make sure you understand payment schedule, what counts as out-of-scope work, how to cancel, and what data you receive if you leave. Reputable companies publish these openly — ours are in our Terms and Refund Policy.

9. Check communication

You will be working together for weeks. Do they reply promptly? Do they explain things clearly in a language you are comfortable with — English or Burmese?
