// I NEED A WEBSITE FAST
Four routes,
and when each one wins.
If you need a website quickly there are four realistic routes: a DIY site builder, live the same day with you doing the work; a marketplace freelancer, days to weeks, with price and quality varying per seller; an agency, usually weeks, starting with calls; or a fixed-price studio. By Friday is the fourth kind — a WordPress build in five working days, priced in writing before it starts, from a design you already have. Which route is right depends on two things: whether the design exists, and whether you need to own the code.

// THE FOUR ROUTES
What each one
is actually fast at.
A DIY site builder
Fast at — being live today, with a template
You supply — the words, the pictures and the time
You own — the content; the site lives on their platform
Right when — you need a presence this afternoon and no particular design
A marketplace freelancer
Fast at — starting — someone can begin within hours
You supply — the brief, and the judgement about who to hire
You own — whatever the contract says; it varies per seller
Right when — the job is small, well-defined, and you can review the work yourself
An agency
Fast at — nothing, by design — discovery comes first
You supply — availability for calls, and a longer budget
You own — usually the result, under a contract
Right when — the site is one piece of a bigger brand or product problem
A fixed-price studio — By Friday
Fast at — turning a finished design into a real site
You supply — the design: Figma, Adobe XD, Sketch, PSD or PNG
You own — the code from day one, plus a domain-tied plugin licence with nothing to renew
Right when — the design exists and you want it live, priced, in five working days
// THE ONE COLUMN WE CAN MEASURE
By Friday,
in four numbers.
5
Working days, at most
€300
Starting price
0
Calls, ever
14
Days to report a mismatch
The other three columns above carry no numbers on purpose. Prices and turnarounds on a marketplace vary per seller, and inventing a figure for somebody else’s service would make every measured number on this site worth less.
// WHEN WE ARE THE WRONG ANSWER
Four cases where
you should go elsewhere.
You need an online store
By Friday does not build shops yet — landings, multi-page sites, blogs and corporate sites only. WooCommerce builds are coming later. A shop today is somebody else’s job.
You have no design
The five days are a build, not a design phase. Without a Figma, XD, Sketch, PSD or PNG to work from there is nothing to start on, and a studio that designs first is the better fit.
Your budget is under €300
€300 is the floor for a landing page. Below it, a DIY builder on a template is an honest answer and we would rather say so.
You want to redesign it yourself, visually, later
Sites are built on stock Gutenberg plus our block plugin — an editor can change content and copy freely, but this is not a drag-and-drop canvas for reshaping whole pages. That is the same decision that keeps the pages fast.
// FAQ
What people ask
when they are in a hurry.
What is the fastest a real website can be built?
What is the fastest a real website can be built?
With a finished design and no meetings, a landing page can be live in one working day. By Friday quotes one to three working days for a landing, two to four for a multi-page site and three to five for a corporate site, counted from the confirmed brief and the next free slot.
Is a fast website a worse website?
Is a fast website a worse website?
It depends on what made it fast. A template filled in quickly is a template. A build is fast here because the stack is fixed — stock Gutenberg, four plugins By Friday writes, 31 ready sections and no page builder — and the pages come out faster too: every build ships Core Web Vitals above 90, with the Lighthouse report in writing.
Do I have to get on a call?
Do I have to get on a call?
No. Everything happens in writing — Telegram, email, Loom. There is no discovery call, no kick-off and no status sync, which is where a large part of the usual timeline goes.
What do I need to have ready before starting?
What do I need to have ready before starting?
The design, in Figma, Adobe XD, Sketch, PSD or PNG, and the text and images that go in it. Send it during working hours — Monday to Friday, 10:00–18:00 CET — and a human replies the same day.
What if I pick By Friday and it turns out wrong?
What if I pick By Friday and it turns out wrong?
You have 14 days from handover. If the site does not match the design you sent, it is fixed at no cost; if it still cannot be matched, you are refunded in full and you keep all the files.

Send the design.
See the price.
If the design exists and the deadline is real, the estimate takes about a minute and the fixed price comes back the same working day.
