2. Tech Expertise: Are the tech expertise compatible with your requirements? If not, you probably need to ask them for a portfolio for websites which were created with the technology or tech stack you want or the one that will fulfil your needs.
3. Support: The team should be able to support your website maintenance requirements. Server issues, updates, and new change requirements ask maintenance support. Agencies with a good reputation offer excellent support for their services and websites through AMC (Annual Maintenance Contract). Look out for it and keep your websites fresh.
