This is my suggestion to anyone looking to have a tech product developed. Find a good developer don't skimp, if you do you will live with it for a very long time and spend multitudes more in maintenance (if the project does not fail outright) than if you had it done right in the first place. If you need to save money, here is how I alway recommend that people do it. Hire that good developer have them build the site and then have them transition the ongoing maintenance of the site to an offshore team. Maintenance cost you far more in the long run. This way, you get the product of a good developer while saving in the long run. As well a good developer is going to do far better than you in identifying a quality offshoring resource. They will be better suited to determine the best person that handle that ongoing maintenance. Most of your good developer are in such high demand that they will relish the fact that they will not be on the hook to maintain the product and you will find the more and more quality developers have existing relationships with an offshore developer that they forward maintenance gigs to.
