On: How do you go about hiring a web designer? How much would you expect to pay roughly? What if the design fails to impress potential users?

I like this designer and he's very friendly. http://www.eoghanmccabe.com/

I'm sure he's an absolute gent. But his webpage is nearly unreadable in my browser. Fonts step all over each other (I'm guessing he's forced line height to be smaller than the font).

First requirement for web designers I hire: I need to be able to read the damned page.
