Cheap web-developers do shoddy work.
Why are you pulling groupon into this? Businesses offer discounts through groupon. The business itself may be among the worst of its kind or among the best. So the quality of product/service received depends on the business offering discount. If you are hiring the cheapest web-developer in the market however, I can guarantee you that you will end up with somebody incompetent.
- kamaal 15y agoYou are getting into classic Nerd rage. Lets take the example of Flipkart. It might not be the epitome of tech innovation. But Flipkart is sheer awesomeness. Let me tell you why! They might have built their site with php, and they might use MySQL and they might use Java. None of that matters. It doesn't matter that they don't use Python, or NoSQL or Ruby on Rails. It doesn't matter if their webpages load 0.01 ms slower than others. Let me tell you what matters. What matters is, somebody with an email can go on their site and order stuff even without a credit card. And they are trustworthy to deliver the good at your doorstep. And they do this with several thousands of customers everyday. This is what matters! They solved a problem, they do it efficiently and they do that several thousand times a day. Code is not an answer to all solutions. In case of a business many things matters. Business is a proposition of a many things and tech is one of them. Merely writing efficient code is not going to make you successful. Although writing efficient code will help you to be successful.
