How long does it take to build a website? (timeline by scope)

Website development timelines explained: landing pages, business websites, e-commerce stores, revisions, content delays, and the fastest way to launch.

Most timelines are content timelines

The biggest delay is usually waiting for content: services list, pricing, photos, addresses, and testimonial proof.

If you want a fast launch, decide your CTA first (WhatsApp/call/form) and provide rough bullet points—copy can be refined after launch.

Typical timelines (India)

Landing page: 1–3 days if content is available.

Business website (3–6 pages): ~5–10 days depending on revisions.

E-commerce store: ~2–4 weeks depending on products, payments, shipping, and policies.

A fast process that works

Day 1: goals + structure (sections and CTAs).

Days 2–3: design + initial build.

Days 4–6: content polish + mobile optimization + SEO basics.

Final: QA, analytics, indexing, and launch.

How to shorten the timeline

Approve structure before design (don’t redesign the page mid-way).

Use real photos if possible; otherwise use consistent placeholders and update later.

Limit revisions to a few focused rounds with clear feedback.
