Indicative timelines: a landing - 5-7 days, a 3-5 page business site - 2-4 weeks, an online store - from 3-4 weeks, a web app - from a few weeks to months. The main thing that stretches the timeline is not the development itself, but waiting for content and edits from the client.
Indicative timelines
| Type | Timeline |
|---|---|
| Landing (1 page) | 5-7 days |
| Business site (3-5 pages) | 2-4 weeks |
| Online store | from 3-4 weeks |
| Web app / portal | from a few weeks |
What affects the timeline
- Content readiness. Texts, photos, services, prices - if they're missing, add time to prepare them.
- Number of pages and features. Online booking, payment, integrations increase the scope.
- Speed of feedback. How long your edits and approvals take.
- Custom design vs. a ready base. A ready-made niche base gives a fast start.
How to speed up launch
- Prepare content in advance (or order copywriting along with it).
- Assign one person for decisions and edits - so you don't wait for "everyone".
- Start with a landing and add the bigger site later.
- Use a ready-made niche base instead of designing from scratch.
What blows the deadline is not the code, but the pauses: "I'll send the texts tomorrow" that lasts two weeks. Ready content is the fastest way to launch on time.
At Studio N we use ready-made niche bases, so a landing comes out in 5-7 days. Get a free audit, and we'll name an exact timeline for your project.
