How long will it take?

Many organisations underestimate the time and effort involved in establishing their web requirements, preparing copy as well as review time and revisions.

Although the smaller sites can be developed quickly and be built in a matter of days, experience shows that the average initial website development ranges from one to three months. Timescales are almost always determined by how quickly the site's structure can be established and how quickly clients can source, supply and approve their copy.
