Yes! please to check our portfolio section on this site.
Typically the client is happy to move to development after 2 or 3 revisions. There are no hard limits on this phase. It is crucial we are in complete agreement over what will be developed.
Each case is different and requires a set of tools that can best deliver results.
Most clients will have their needs met using WordPress, so we will start with that. It is the undisputed leader with over 60% of existing websites using it.
If needed, we can develop custom code, in which case the most likely option will be nodeJS + React, with a google firebase database.
We can discuss designing/developing Wix, Squarespace, etc.
It depends on the complexity and urgency.
A simple website like a personal profile page with a simple blog could be up and running within a week.
A more complex site, like an e-commerce website with hundreds of products, payments, reviews, etc might require more than a month time.
With WordPress you will have access to your website back end and a user friendly interface to interact with the content.
In agreement with the client, some parts can be locked from editing to ensure the client doesn’t “break” something unintentionally.
