How Long Does Website Development Take?

One of the most asked questions: how long does website development take? Here are realistic timelines.

Timelines by Project Type

Below is an overview of typical lead times at AEH Web Services.

  • Landing page: 3-5 business days
  • Simple business website (3-5 pages): 1-2 weeks
  • Extended business website (5-15 pages): 2-4 weeks
  • Webshop (Shopify): 1-3 weeks
  • Custom webshop: 3-6 weeks
  • Custom web application: 4-8 weeks

What Affects the Timeline?

Several factors determine how quickly your website is ready.

  • Content: how quickly do you provide text and images?
  • Feedback: quick approval speeds up the process
  • Complexity: more functionality takes more time
  • Integrations: connections with external systems require extra development
  • Revision rounds: clear feedback saves rounds

Tips to Speed Up the Process

You can significantly speed up the process with the right preparation. Here are the most important tips.

  • Prepare your content: gather text, photos and your logo before the project starts
  • Be clear about your needs and goals — the more specific, the faster
  • Provide quick feedback on interim deliveries — delay in feedback = delay in delivery
  • Designate one point of contact within your organization for fast decision-making
  • Browse example websites you like and share them for inspiration

Frequently Asked Questions

Can it be faster than 1-2 weeks?

In some cases yes, especially for smaller projects or when all content is readily available. A landing page can be live within 3 business days. Discuss your deadline during the free consultation.

What if I'm in a hurry?

I can take on rush projects if my schedule allows. A landing page can be live within 3 business days, for example. Contact me to discuss your timeline and I'll let you know what's possible.

When should I provide my content?

Ideally before or at the start of the project. If you need help writing text, I can guide you through the process. Having content ready upfront is the single biggest factor in speeding up delivery.

How many revision rounds are included?

Two revision rounds are included as standard. In practice, more are rarely needed thanks to interim check-ins throughout the process. Additional rounds can be arranged if needed.

What happens after going live?

After launch, I monitor your website briefly for any issues and offer flexible maintenance packages for ongoing support. The first 30 days of aftercare are included free of charge.
