WHAT THINGS COST

How long does it take to build a website?

Two published delivery times, and a clock that stops when the project is waiting on you.

A landing page takes seven days and a website of up to 7 pages takes three weeks, counted from the first working day after payment clears and your brief is submitted. They cost $1,200 and $3,500, and the clock pauses whenever we are waiting on you.

The packages behind the answer to "How long does it take to build a website?", drawn as a price ladder with what pushes the number up and down. — Prices read from the catalogue, so this chart cannot disagree with the pricing page.

When the clock starts

Not on the day you pay. Our terms say a delivery time starts on the first working day after payment clears and the project brief is submitted. Fixed-price work is paid in full before it starts, so the order is payment, then the brief, then the first working day after both.

That makes the brief the part you control. Sending it the same day you pay is the quickest way to bring the delivery date forward, and sending it a week later moves the date by a week without anything having gone wrong.

Why a page is seven days and a site is three weeks

A landing page is one page with one job, and its steps are a brief, a design you approve before anything is coded, a build and a handover. Most of the time goes on the decisions: what sits above the fold, what order the argument runs in, what gets cut. Once those are made the code is the fast part.

A website adds a step in front of the design. A site has to answer questions in an order, so the page list and its order are agreed first, then a design system is built on real pages, then the site is coded and handed over. A site of up to 7 pages takes three weeks against seven days for one, which is why a site here is three weeks rather than three months.

What pauses the clock

If we are waiting on content, access or feedback from you, the clock pauses for that time. The same applies to the other delivery times on the site: five days for a technical SEO audit, five days for a visual and video pack, two weeks for a brand identity.

A revision round is one consolidated set of changes within the agreed scope, two rounds on a landing page and three on a website. Sending feedback as a single list rather than a message at a time is how the rounds are meant to be used, and it is the difference between a design that moves forward and one that waits.

When the date is not fixed

Two packages are scoped rather than dated. Immersive and 3D work starts at $4,500, and the honest delivery time depends on whether usable 3D assets exist: a clean model shortens the job by a week, and a photograph of a product does not. A custom web app starts at $7,500 and its date follows from the scope of the first working version.

In both cases the date stops being a guess once the assets or the scope are known, and you are told it then. The reason it is not printed on the package is that the variable is your material, not our speed.

If it stalls on your side

If we cannot start because the content, access or approvals we asked for have not arrived, the project is held open for 90 days and you are reminded twice. After that it closes and 50% is refunded, because the slot was reserved and not resold.

Once the work is delivered there are thirty days of fixes at no charge, and the deliverables become yours when the final payment clears. The delivery time is the date for the work, and the thirty days after it are for anything that does not work or breaks by itself.

Worked example

Delivery time by package
Package	Delivery	Price
Landing Page	7 days	$1,200
Website	3 weeks	$3,500
Brand Identity	2 weeks	$1,200
Technical SEO Audit	5 days	$900
Visual & Video Pack	5 days	$450
Immersive / 3D Experience	Dated once the scope is agreed	from $4,500
Custom Web App	Dated once the scope is agreed	from $7,500

A delivery time starts on the first working day after payment clears and the project brief is submitted, not on the day of payment. If we are waiting on content, access or feedback from you, the clock pauses for that time.

What moves the number

Makes it longer: Waiting on content, access or feedback, a scope beyond the package, 3D assets that need cleaning or making
Makes it shorter: One page instead of seven, the brief submitted the day you pay, feedback sent as one consolidated set
Does not move the price: The fee is fixed: a paused clock does not add to it

Frequently asked questions

When does the delivery clock start?

What happens if I am slow to send content or access?

If we are waiting on content, access or feedback from you, the clock pauses for that time. If we cannot start because you did not send the content, access or approvals we asked for, we hold the project open for 90 days and remind you twice. After that the project closes and 50% is refunded, because the slot was reserved and not resold.

When do I pay?

Fixed-price work is paid in full before it starts. Monthly work is paid monthly in advance and can be stopped at the end of any paid month. Prices are in US dollars.

Why is the delivery scoped instead of fixed?

Because the variable is your assets, not our speed. We would rather give you a date we can hold after seeing the files than a number that slips.

How do revision rounds work?

Each package states how many revision rounds it includes. A revision round is one consolidated set of changes within the agreed scope. Changes that alter the scope are quoted separately.

What happens after the work is delivered?

One-off projects carry thirty days of fixes at no charge from the day the work is handed over: anything that does not work, or that breaks by itself, is ours to put right. We watch the delivered work over that month rather than waiting to be told. Work you think of later is new work and is quoted separately. Monthly packages have no separate support window because the month you are paying for is the support.
