Online in 10 working days: how your website comes together, step by step

«How long does this actually take?» and «what do I have to do?» are the two questions that come up most before a new website. The short answer: around ten working days, and from you it needs mainly one thing — to tell us once what you do. Read this article as a roadmap.

Why the process matters at all

A website rarely fails on design and often on process: weeks pass waiting for copy, responsibilities are unclear, and after the third round of changes nobody remembers what was agreed. A clear process with fixed steps solves exactly that. With the Werkwave website subscription the path is split into manageable stages.

Step 1: The short conversation (day 1)

It starts with a conversation, not a form marathon. You tell us what your business does, for whom, and what must appear on the site. Existing material — logo, photos, copy — is welcome but not required. If you have none, you get suggestions.

Step 2: Structure and content (days 2 to 4)

The conversation becomes a structure: which pages, in what order, with which message first? Werkwave writes the copy, prepares your images and builds everything so Google understands the site — clean titles, sensible structure, fast loading. These basics later decide whether you are found.

Step 3: Your review (days 5 to 7)

You see the site before it goes live and say what fits and what does not. One round of changes is planned in — concrete and to the point, not an open back-and-forth. That keeps the schedule and makes sure your voice ends up on the page, not a template.

Step 4: Going live (days 8 to 10)

Finally the site goes onto your domain, with hosting and SSL set up ready to run. After ten working days at most your website is online — and from there begins the part many underestimate: ongoing care.

And after that? Maintenance is already included

A website is never «finished». Opening hours change, a new service is added, a photo needs swapping. With the subscription model these changes are included without limit — you contact your dedicated person and Werkwave does the rest. No new project, no new invoice.

What this means for you

Your effort comes down to one conversation and one review. You need no preparation, no technical knowledge and no finished concept. How this route compares on price with agency and builder, we work out in «What does a website cost in Switzerland?».

Conclusion

Ten working days, two touchpoints, a website that is cared for from the start and has a chance on Google. If that sounds like the right pace for your business, take a look at the website subscription — or check where your current site stands with a free website check.
