In today’s digital-first world, your website is your business identity. Whether you run a pet store, a café, or a large enterprise, your customers first search for you online before they ever walk into your shop. But here’s the catch choosing the wrong web development company can damage your business more than you think.
Recently, one of my friends who runs a successful Pet & Vet Food Service in Hennur Cross, Bengaluru, faced a shocking experience. They wanted a simple website to showcase their services and connect with customers online. Instead of going with a professional website development company in Bengaluru, they handed over the work to a nearby local developer who promised to do it at a “cheap cost.”
At first, everything looked fine. But within 11 months, the problems began.
- The developer started claiming that the website renewal was due, even though the actual domain renewal date was September 16, 2025 (as per the domain provider’s records).
- To pressure the business owners, the developer made the website go down twice, disrupting their online presence.
- Shockingly, he even removed the company’s logo and branding from the website and replaced it with a “Site Down” message.
Imagine the impact this has on a running business. Not only do customers lose trust when they see a website down, but it also creates shame and credibility issues for the brand. A website is supposed to build your reputation, not destroy it.
This story is a reminder that:
Always choose a registered and professional web service provider.
Ensure your domain and hosting are purchased in your name, not under the developer’s control.
Don’t fall for cheap promises quality web services come with accountability.
Work with companies that provide transparency in website renewal and maintenance.
