How long does it take to build a business website?

Short answer: a focused business website usually takes a few weeks from kickoff to launch. Most of that time goes to decisions and content, not code. With a brand already in place and a fixed scope, a site can go live in as little as 48 hours.

What are the stages of a website project?

1. Discovery. A call to understand the business, the customers and what the site needs to do.

2. Strategy and structure. Agreeing on the pages, the message and the main action on each page.

3. Copy and design. Writing the words and designing the pages, then reviewing them together.

4. Build. Making the site work on every screen, with forms, SEO setup and analytics.

5. Launch and handover. Connecting the domain, final checks, and showing your team how to edit.

What slows a website project down?

• Waiting on photos, logos or text

• Too many people giving feedback at different times

• Adding pages or features halfway through

• Rethinking the brand in the middle of the website project

The fix is simple: one decision maker, content gathered early, and a scope agreed in writing before work starts.

How long does each sero social option take?

• The Forty-Eight: a website refresh or a new site from scratch, live in 48 hours.

• The Foundation: about three weeks for brand and a three-page website.

• Flagship Build: a custom timeline, agreed before work begins.
