Choosing a web development partner is one of the most important business decisions you will make. Here is what to evaluate:
Do They Build Full-Stack? If the developer delivers a collection of static pages (WordPress, Wix, Squarespace), you are getting a brochure—not a business tool. Look for full-stack development with frontend, backend, database, and admin panel.
Is SEO Built In or Bolted On? Many developers treat SEO as an afterthought or upsell. It should be baked into every page from day one—unique meta tags, schema markup, keyword optimization, and technical SEO.
Do They Know What AEO Is? If the developer has never heard of Answer Engine Optimization, llms.txt files, or AI crawler configuration, they are behind. AEO is essential for business visibility in 2026.
Do They Implement Schema Markup? Ask specifically: "How many JSON-LD schema types will my site have?" If the answer is zero or one, walk away. You need 7+ types for comprehensive coverage.
Do They Allow AI Crawlers? Ask: "Will my website allow GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot?" Most platforms block these by default. Your developer should explicitly allow 40+ AI crawlers.
Do They Provide a Deliverable Report? A professional developer documents what they built. MyFast.ai delivers a comprehensive Website Technology & Optimization Report showing every page, schema type, keyword target, and technical optimization.
What About Contracts? Avoid long-term contracts and setup fees. The best partners earn your business monthly, not through lock-in.
