Website redesign timeline
How long a website redesign takes by scope, and what speeds up or delays your launch date.
Typical website redesign timeline
Marketing sites: 8 to 12 weeks from kickoff to launch when content production runs parallel.
Ecommerce and complex B2B: 12 to 20 weeks.
Partial template redesigns: 4 to 8 weeks when URL structure stays stable.
Reasons for website redesign delays
Late content delivery pushes launch more than design iteration.
Compliance or legal review on healthcare and financial pages.
Integration dependencies on vendors outside your control.
Scope additions after wireframes are approved.
How often should you redesign your website?
Many B2B sites refresh every 3 to 4 years. Ecommerce may iterate templates yearly with full rebuilds less often.
Redesign when Core Web Vitals fail, conversion drops, or IA no longer matches how you sell.
