Good web designers understand SEO.

Ideally if you brief web designer about your ideas. Which content the site has.
If you have copy written. Best outcomes are if designer and content writer work hand in hand.

Because yes. Web design should be expandable. 2 or 8 lines both should fit.
Good design plays with rythm and peoples attention. There is a big differennce how you design for different texts.

Nowadays, most designers can do no-code pages

Its probably wise to get specific requirements from SEO person if you do something more complex.
As like if your blog posts need FAQ or sitemap or something specific.

Otherwise again it might happen that. You get a well designed site. That is ruined by some visual SEO adons. This should be designers job.

Depends how complex your site is you might also need a developer too.

If its a smaller site. Eg SaaS marketing web. I would think out whats your SEO strategy.
Then let designer do their job. And SEO expert to cover articles, backlinks, content marketing etc.
