One page: 1–2 weeks. A full business site: 2–4 weeks. Custom platforms: 4–8 weeks. Here's what happens in each phase — and how to make it faster.
"How long will it take?" is the second question every client asks, right after cost. Here are honest timelines — and the surprising thing that slows projects down most.
Realistic timelines by project type
- **One-page website:** 1–2 weeks
- **Business website (5–8 pages):** 2–4 weeks
- **Advanced site (10+ pages, booking, payments):** 4–6 weeks
- **E-commerce or custom web application:** 6–10 weeks
- **Rush delivery:** possible on most projects for a surcharge — the quote calculator prices it automatically.
What happens in each phase
**Week 1 — Scope & content.** We lock the pages, features, and goals. You send your logo, photos, and text (or I write it). A deposit secures your slot.
**Weeks 2–3 — Design & build.** I design and develop the site on a private preview link you can watch take shape.
**Week 3–4 — Review & refine.** You give feedback; we refine. Most projects need two revision rounds.
**Final days — Launch.** Domain connection, SEO checks, analytics, and go-live. Then I hand you the keys (or a care plan handles everything).
The real bottleneck: content
Here's the industry secret: websites rarely run late because of development. They run late waiting for text and photos. The single best way to speed up your project is to gather your content before we start — or let me write the copy for you.
