What speeds things up
- Content early. Send your logo, photos and text before or at the start of the build.
- One decision-maker. Feedback from one person avoids conflicting changes.
- Quick reviews. Replies within a day or two keep a project moving.
- Complete documents. For registrations, correct ID details for every director and clear name options.
What slows things down
Waiting for content is by far the most common delay. Name rejections at the companies registry, a previous developer who controls your domain, and DNS changes that take time to spread across the internet can also add days. We tell you as soon as we see a delay coming.
