From zero to hero, step by step.

Hiring a digital project shouldn't feel like signing blind. This is our full process, the same for a corporate site as for a SaaS platform. Read it and you'll know exactly what happens each week.

6 phases one team from start to finish 0 surprises
  1. PHASE 01 1 week

    Discovery

    Listen first, advise second

    A 20-minute call and a short questionnaire. We want to understand the business, not just the assignment: goals, audience, competition and what's hurting today.

    • Project map (1 page)
    • Analysis of 3 competitors
    • Risks caught early
    ID Ignacio · Dave
  2. PHASE 02 2–3 days

    Proposal

    Numbers you can actually read

    Scope, timeline and price locked into a document you can read in 10 minutes. No mystery line items, no "to be determined." Valid for 30 days, no strings attached.

    • Scope detailed by phase
    • Schedule with milestones
    • Fixed price, no surprises
    I Ignacio
  3. PHASE 03 1–2 weeks

    Design

    Your brand, not a template

    Wireframes first, interface second. We design on your brand and your real content, no lorem ipsum that won't fit later. Two rounds of changes included.

    • Navigable wireframes
    • UI design for key pages
    • Component system

  4. PHASE 04 2–10 weeks

    Development

    Demo Fridays

    Weekly sprints with a demo every Friday morning. You get a staging environment from week one: you watch your project grow on a real URL, not on promises.

    • Staging from week 1
    • Weekly 15-min demo
    • Versioned, documented code
    PGD Pablo · Gianna · Dave
  5. PHASE 05 1 week

    Launch

    Thorough QA, a launch without surprises

    Pablo lets nothing slip: functional testing, performance, technical SEO and security. We launch during a quiet window, with a rollback plan and monitoring from minute one.

    • 60+ point QA checklist
    • Core Web Vitals in the green
    • Backups + rollback ready
    PD Pablo · Dave
  6. PHASE 06 always

    Growth

    Launch is the starting line

    Managed hosting 24/7, well-instrumented metrics and iterative improvements. Your site doesn't stand still: it grows with your business, and we stay on the other side.

    • Monitoring and backups 24/7
    • Monthly report you can understand
    • Iteration with data, not hunches

Always included

Staging always visible

Your project lives on a real URL from week 1. No "trust me".

You talk to whoever builds it

No middle managers. The person who replies is the one who types.

Bad news, fast

If something goes sideways, you know the same day, plan B included.

Fixed price

What we agreed is what you pay. Extras are quoted separately, before they're done.

Everything under one roof, or everything in triplicate

You can hire one agency for the website, another for SEO and a sysadmin for the server. Or you can have one team that answers for all three. Here's what changes:

01 Team

One team. Development, strategy and infrastructure already talk to each other.

Three vendors who never talk to each other — and you stuck in the middle.

02 Who you talk to

You talk directly to the people building your project.

An account manager who'll "check with the technical team."

03 Budget

Fixed price by milestone: you know what, when and how much before we start.

Extra hours that mysteriously appear at the end.

04 Performance

Obsessed with Core Web Vitals: Lighthouse scores in the 90s, standard.

An off-the-shelf template with 40 plugins and an 8-second load.

05 When something breaks

24/7 monitoring and a team that already knows your project inside out.

"That's a hosting problem — open a ticket with them."

06 Honesty

If we can't do it, or it's not right for you, we say so up front.

Yes to everything, figure it out later.

What happens if it goes wrong

Six commitments we already keep. Here together, before you have to ask for them.

  • The price is agreed in writing

    After the call you get a fixed price, and it does not move. Anything that expands the scope is quoted before it is done, never as a surprise on the invoice.

  • 90 days of full warranty

    From the day it goes live, and it is three months, not thirty days: a website’s faults do not show up in the first week, they show up when something on the server changes or the form quietly stops delivering. We fix it at no cost and with no argument about whose fault it was.

  • Two rounds of design changes included

    We design on your brand and your real content, with two rounds of changes inside the price. If a third is needed we tell you what it costs before doing it, never after.

  • Everything is yours, and you can leave

    The code, the database and the domain. There is no proprietary platform you cannot leave, and we do not charge an exit fee. A client who stays because they cannot leave is not a happy client.

  • No year up front

    Maintenance is paid month by month, with a 12-month initial term. We do not ask for twelve months in advance to get started.

  • 99.9 % uptime, committed

    And if it goes down we know before you do: checked every minute, daily backups kept off the server with 30 days of history, and security updates applied by a person. That is in all three care plans, the cheapest one included, and the uptime commitment is written into the terms, with the method used to measure it.

Where your site lives, who can see it, and how it is built

Three questions worth having answered before you sign, not after.

  • We strongly recommend Super Awesome Host

    It is the hosting platform we built in 2022 and still run, which is why we recommend it without hesitating: when something breaks there is nobody to blame it on, because the people who built the site and the people who run the server are the same people, with no third-party support desk in between at eleven at night. And we are strict about where each site lives: European clients on servers in Spain or France (OVH), US clients in Virginia. They never get mixed. If you would rather use your own provider, the site is yours and it ships wherever you say: we tell you what it needs to run just as well, and we set it up there.

  • Confidentiality, with the right paperwork for the place

    We sign a non-disclosure agreement on request, always. If the project handles personal data of people in Europe, we also sign the processor agreement required by article 28 of the GDPR, with the safeguards and the sub-processors in writing. If it handles US health data, the Business Associate Agreement that HIPAA requires — and Super Awesome Host signs it too, so the chain holds all the way down and does not break at the provider. And access is bounded by contract: who can see the data, from where, and under what safeguards — set out in full in our privacy policy.

    Read our privacy policy

  • Built to standards, not by eye

    Semantic HTML, navigable end to end with a keyboard, checked contrast, alternative text on images, and animation switched off for anyone who asks for it to be off. Tested in the four browsers, and from the phone upwards rather than the other way round. And the checking is not on trust: every publish runs an automated audit that fails if an image loses its alt text or a navigation loses its name.

Frequently asked questions

What people usually ask before they start. Can't find yours? Ask us.

Ask a question
01 How long does a project take from start to finish?
A corporate site takes 3 to 5 weeks of development — 5 to 7 from the proposal once you count discovery. A store or platform, 8 to 18 weeks in total. Discovery gives you a schedule with concrete milestones before you commit to anything.
02 What do you need from me during the process?
Not much, but it matters: the kickoff call, feedback on the two design rounds and content (or a green light for us to write it). The rest is on us: we let you know when it's your turn, with plenty of notice.
03 What if I want to change something mid-project?
You can. Small changes fit into the included rounds; anything that expands scope is quoted separately — always before it's done, never as a surprise on the invoice. You decide with the information in front of you.
04 What happens after launch?
Ninety days of full warranty included (we fix any defect at no cost). After that, if you want, we continue with managed hosting, metrics and iteration. Phase 06 is optional, but it's where projects become success stories.

Ready to start with phase 01?

The discovery call is free and with no commitment. In 20 minutes you'll know if we're a fit, and you'll walk away with useful advice even if we never work together.
