Re Toptal: Is Toptal worth the price?

I was quoted a very high price for a simple SEO-friendly website.

I have had bad experiences with the cheap website guys from Bangladesh, etc,

Not saying many of them aren't good, but how can a layman tell?

Looks like their top 3% web master forgot to add some links at the footer of the website (jk, or maybe not)


Get something in the middle,
It's true that the web is filled with crappy developers & designers nowadays,
Investing in some time to find some decent freelancers is surely worth it for the long run,

I would suggest to search in specific online communities like fb groups, discord servers, etc...
There are some experts with reasonable prices in there,

Also, you need to make sure to include as much details as needed for the project you need to make,
Making things clear for both you & the other parties will make things easier for both for sure
