This is probably the question we get asked the most, right after price. And like most good answers, it depends on what you're building. Here's a realistic breakdown based on the type of website you need.
Simple three page websites
Our entry level package, a simple three page website, is usually completed in about two weeks. This option works well for businesses that just need a clean, professional presence online without a lot of extra pages or custom features.
Standard business websites
For most small businesses, a full website typically takes about a month and a half to complete, though it can run anywhere from a few weeks up to three or four months depending on complexity. If you're a plumber, electrician, HVAC contractor, accountant, financial advisor, franchise owner, hair salon or nail business owner, auto parts wholesaler, or mechanic, and you're looking for a full business website with service pages, photos, reviews, and area specific pages, you can generally expect it to be finished within three to four weeks.
Complex or highly custom projects
For larger builds, like a Shopify store with 200 or more products, or a site with a custom back end system such as a member portal or secure login area, the timeline stretches out further. These projects require more upfront architecture and planning, so the timeframe really depends on the specifics of what you need. For anything in this category, we'll walk through the scope together and give you a realistic timeline before work begins.
The bottom line
Most businesses fall into that standard range of a few weeks to a month and a half. Simple sites move fast, complex ones take the time they need to be built right, and either way, you'll know the expected timeline upfront before the project starts.
