One Week to a Website You’ll Love
A Website in a Week gives you a polished, strategic WordPress site fast.
We’ll plan together, then I dedicate the week to your project, crafting a modern, fully functional website that reflects your brand and connects with your ideal clients.
Clear steps, one set price, and your new site ready to launch in just a week.
The Process fromStart to Site
All communication happens through a simple private messaging space, so feedback and updates are quick and effortless.I take on only one website project at a time, giving your site my complete attention from start to finish. The result is an elegant, custom-designed mobile-ready website without the typical wait or stress.
Discover & Plan
We start with a kick-off call to understand your goals, audience, and style. Together we map the pages, features, and content your new site will need.
Content & Assets
You gather or create text, images, and brand elements. I provide clear checklists and guidance so this part is easy and organized.
Build & Integrate
I design and develop the complete site directly in WordPress/Divi, ensuring a clean, modern layout that’s fully mobile-ready and meets accessibility guidelines.
Review & Refine
You explore your nearly finished site and share feedback. I handle edits and polish every detail for a flawless experience.
Launch & Support
Your site goes live on your domain & web host. I hand over logins, simple training, and optional maintenance to keep it running smoothly. Enjoy 30 days of email support for quick questions and smooth post-launch follow-up.

Website in a WeekFAQ's
How do we get started?
Book your free discovery call to discuss your goals and desired launch date. After we agree on the details, you’ll receive a contract and invoice for a 50% deposit to reserve your build week.
What do I need to provide before the build?
Your logo, brand colors or palette, website copy (text), and any specific images or photos you’d like included. Don’t worry I will give you a clear prep checklist after the discovery call.
What if I need more than 5 pages?
Extra pages or features can be added for an additional fee. We’ll discuss any extra pages or custom needs during the discovery call so there are no surprises.
Is a week really enough to get my website built and lauched?
Yes! The week is carefully structured: a planning call, focused design time, and daily check-ins keep everything on track. By Friday your site is live and ready.
Can you help with writing or images?
Absolutely. If you’d like professional copywriting or stock images, I can recommend trusted resources or add those services to your package.
