You added no additional information; saying agencies instead of houses is not helpful information.


I think his answer was more or less in the "contact local agencies part".

To add some color, it's likely there are already design/development shops in your city if you live somewhere with any kind of technology presence. If you don't know of any, go to local meetups in the web space and ask around about which ones are local to you.

As was previously mentioned, many development shops subcontract out work to local developers. Talking to them at meetups or sending an email letting them know you're interested in working with them is a great way to kick off a conversation that could lead to you working with them.


I know what his answers was, it was exactly the same as the statement that prompted that guy to ask the question in the first place. It was useless. As is this thread now.


Oh and I suppose your comment adds a wealth of information? If you can't find any value in my comment, either ignore it or downvote it. Don't go around insulting people, you add absolutely no value to this discussion.

Steven was right, the point I was making a point that I've found contacting local agencies/houses to be most successful, probably due to the fact it's easy to meet face-to-face and go in to their offices when they really need the extra help.


Maybe this will help:

1: Open a web browser (look for a blue E icon, or a red/yellow/green circle, or an orange fox circling a globe)

2: In the address bar, type "www.google.com" without the quotes and press enter.

3: In the search bar of the page that appears, type "CITY web development" again without quotes and substituting the city you live in for CITY.


I didn't ask the question, maybe you should learn to read. I merely commented on the uselessness of his answer which did nothing but rephrase the statement the question was about while adding nothing of use.


You would never tell someone to "learn to read" in face-to-face conversation, so you shouldn't here. Equally importantly: the comments you're replying to are productive; they are the actual answer to the question posed.


If someone told me to use google the way he did, yes I would tell him that in real life, except I'd say open your ears and stop being a duche. And no, the comment was not productive as it had nothing to do with my comment that he was replying to. It may have been productive as a reply to the guy who asked the question, but that wasn't me.
