Outsource Web Developers Philippines

Your website is the public face of your business, and it’s your 24/7 salesperson, so it needs to be rock solid. While a well-built website may look simple to untrained people, building a website when you have little or no web developing skills can be a very painful experience.

Whether you’re looking to build a brand new website, or improve and maintain your existing site, having your own dedicated web developer means your business has full control over your online presence.

There are 3 kinds of web developer specializations:
Front-end: Specializes in visuals and behavior that run in the user’s browser.
Back-end: Works on the database and server-side aspects of the site.
Full-stack: Deal with both front-end and back-end.

In the 2014 IBPAP report, there were close to 75,000 workers in the information technology segment of the BPO industry; this segment comprises web developers, software developers, game developers, mobile application developers, and other roles involved in software and website development.

This number has grown a great deal in the last 4 years and the demand for talented web developers outside the BPO industry has also increased.

Web developer qualifications and experience

Local web developers in the Philippines are broadly categorized by years of experience, whether front-end, back-end or full-stack:

Junior: Less than 1 year of web development experience
Intermediate: 1-3 years of web development experience
Senior: 3+ years of web development experience.

Web developer tools

Any web developer would know the following basics: HTML, CSS, scripting and one or more programming languages such as PHP, .Net, c#.Net, etc. While there are many available software programs for web development, these basic skills are necessary to utilize them.

Some website builders enable construction of websites without manual code editing. The commonly used programs are:

Tips for employing Filipino web developers

It takes 7-10 weeks to hire a web developer in the Philippines.
If you require a less common programming language or very particular tool expertise, you can expect a higher variance in salary and turnaround time to hire.
Full-stack developers are emerging profiles in the market, as the older generation of web developers who were either front-end or back-end are starting to learn and specialize in both.
Team leaders and managers are expected to be experienced in web/software development project management methodologies such as Scrum, Agile, Kanban, Waterfall, XP and more.
Senior developers tend to have worked with older technologies and are less hands-on, since they would have some form of supervising duties already.
If you’re looking for someone with knowledge of a relatively new technology in web development, consider junior to intermediate developers (they are also the hungrier ones in terms of learning and enhancing their skills).
When you outsource web development to the Philippines, you can expect candidates who are average English speakers, and they do not have the same proficiency as the usual customer service or call center agents who are directly interacting with customers.
