Getting a Website Made: Realistic Planning for Your SME

As an SME entrepreneur, are you planning to have a new website built, or to renovate your current one? A frequently asked question is: 'How long does that actually take?' The time needed to realize a professional website varies greatly. It depends on various factors, such as the complexity of the design, the desired functionalities, and the speed at which information is supplied. At Assist2go, we understand that you want to move forward quickly and efficiently.

To give you a realistic picture, we can divide the process into different phases. The preparation phase, in which we inventory your wishes and create a plan of action, usually takes 1 to 2 weeks. Herein, we determine the structure, content, and look and feel of your new website. Subsequently, the design phase begins. Here, we develop the visual design and the user experience. Depending on the feedback rounds, this can take 2 to 4 weeks. The actual construction of the website, where the code is written and the functionalities are implemented, is often the most time-consuming part. Count on 4 to 8 weeks for this, depending on the complexity. Finally, there are the testing phase and the launch, which typically take 1 to 2 weeks. All in all, you can count on a total lead time of approximately 8 to 16 weeks for a standard business website.

What does this mean concretely for your SME business? Realistic planning is crucial. By starting early and going through the steps properly, you prevent hasty decisions and ensure a website that perfectly matches your business goals.
