From the first conversation to a living website

Every project moves through seven phases. They are deliberate, transparent, and built around how a small business actually has time to collaborate. Scroll to see how each phase unfolds.

The seven phases

Each phase has a clear deliverable, a realistic timeline, and a defined hand-off to the next one. You always know where we are.

Phase 01

Discovery

Understanding your business and your goals

Typical duration: 1 - 2 days

Everything starts with a conversation. I want to understand your business, who your customers are, what problems you solve, and what you expect from a website. This conversation is free and carries no obligation.

What you get

  • Shared understanding of the project
  • Preliminary scope and timeline estimate
Phase 02

Planning

Sitemap, wireframes, technical plan

Typical duration: 3 - 5 days

Based on our conversation, I prepare a project plan. Sitemap, wireframes, and a technical plan. Nothing goes into design until we agree on the structure.

What you get

  • Sitemap
  • Wireframes
  • Technical plan
  • Detailed proposal with fixed price and timeline
Phase 03

Design

UI / UX design in Figma

Typical duration: 1 - 2 weeks

In Figma I create the visual design of the site. You see exactly how the site will look on desktop and mobile before I write a single line of code.

What you get

  • Complete UI design in Figma
  • Interactive prototype for review
Phase 04

Development

Writing the code from scratch

Typical duration: 2 - 4 weeks

Once the design is approved, I start writing code. I use modern technologies and build everything from scratch. During development you get regular updates so you can see progress, not just receive a final hand-off.

What you get

  • Functional website built to the approved design
Phase 05

Testing

QA, performance, compatibility

Typical duration: 3 - 5 days

Before anything goes live, I test everything. Functional tests, responsiveness, load speed, browser compatibility, accessibility.

What you get

  • Tested and optimized site ready for launch
Phase 06

Launch

Deploy, DNS, SSL, go live

Typical duration: 1 - 2 days

All the technical details I handle myself. Server setup, DNS configuration, SSL certificate, redirects, indexing checks for Google.

What you get

  • Fully functional website available to the entire world
Phase 07

Support and growth

Continuous partnership

Typical duration: Ongoing

Launch is not the end of the collaboration, it is the beginning of a new phase. I track how the site performs, fix any issues that come up, and stay available for future improvements.

What you get

  • Continuous partnership
  • Security and long-term support
