Every web design project is a collaboration; we depend on each other to get content, approve designs, consider the features that your website is going to have, etc.
We're in this together, and I am invested in getting your site up and operational as quickly as possible while ensuring the end result is something that you (and your audience/customers/fans) will love.
With that said, the average lead-time is 4 weeks from our initial meeting.

While the industry standard has been WordPress for decades, and its customization is unmatched, the goal is fluidity and the reality is that there are better, more cohesive, web design tools available to small business owners nowadays.
That’s why I now design exclusively using Squarespace CMS for website design and development - it provides the most fluid user experience while still maintaining speed, flexibility, customization (via custom HTML/CSS). And - despite what most diehard Wordpress developers say - it can have exceptional SEO performance (when designed by an experienced professional). Plus it employs next-gen AI technologies that are baked in to help future-proof your site.
But one of its biggest benefits is that it doesn’t pigeon hole you, the site owner, into being dependent on a web design professional indefinitely.
While my hope and mission is that we’ll have a long and productive business relationship. My goal for you is continuity, and ensuring that your site is as transferable and as easy to manage as possible for you - if/when the time comes for you to move on.

For new website designs, I generally request 50% up front (plus hosting & domain registration fees), 50% on final design approval and launch.
With that said, I’m open to discussing other payment arrangements - I know the cash-flow struggles that come with launching a new project or venture.
