The Real Website Timeline (Short Build, Calm Scheduling)
One of the first questions people ask when considering a new website is:
“How long will it take?”
The answer surprises a lot of people:
👉 Most of my websites are built in 1–2 weeks.
👉 The wait is in the calendar — not the build.
And that’s intentional.
Let me explain how the timeline actually works, and why this structure creates better results.
Step 1: Booking Your Project
Once you book, your project is secured on my calendar.
At this point:
Scope is confirmed
Pricing is locked in
Your 50% deposit is paid
Your website has a dedicated place in the build schedule
This removes uncertainty and allows everything to move cleanly once the project begins.
Step 2: Waiting for Your Start Date (2–8 Weeks)
Most projects begin 2–8 weeks after booking, depending on availability.
This wait is not about dragging things out — it’s about:
Protecting focused build time
Preventing rushed or fragmented work
Making sure your website receives full attention
Clients often find this window surprisingly grounding. Decisions settle. Direction becomes clear.
Step 3: Build Phase (1–2 Weeks)
Once your project officially starts, things move pretty fast.
The entire website build typically takes 1–2 weeks.
During this time:
Structure and design are built together
Content is shaped for clarity and conversion
SEO and AI-search foundations are installed from day one
Pages are assembled efficiently, without overcomplication
This is possible because the work is focused — not stretched thin.
Step 4: Review, Refine, Launch
After the build:
We review the site calmly
Small refinements are made
The website launches feeling complete and ready
No long drawn-out cycles. No endless revisions.
Why This Timeline Works So Well
Separating calendar wait time from build time creates clarity.
Instead of:
A project dragging on for months
Constant context switching
Half-finished momentum
You get:
A clear start date
A short, decisive build window
A finished website that feels intentional
Most clients tell me they’re surprised by how easy the process feels.
After Launch: Where Growth Happens
Launching the site is not the end of the timeline — it’s the beginning of momentum.
Many clients choose to:
Add ongoing content support
Continue SEO-aligned growth
Make small quarterly updates instead of reactive changes
This keeps the website working without constant management.
Who This Timeline Is Best For
This process works best for clients who:
Are ready to move forward
Appreciate clear structure
Value quality over chaos
Want results without pressure
If you need something rushed tomorrow, this likely isn’t the right fit.
If you want something built well — efficiently and calmly — it usually is.
Ready to Get on the Calendar?
If this timeline feels supportive rather than stressful, you can:
Both options are designed to help you move forward clearly — without urgency or overwhelm.
Your website doesn’t need months to be built.
It just needs the right window.
