How long does website development take?

A typical company website is completed in 3 to 6 weeks. The timeline depends on the number of pages, the scope of custom features, and how ready the content is. What stretches the schedule most is missing or half-finished content, not the development itself. We set the exact timeline after mapping the goals and scope.

Which platform is the website built on?

The platform is chosen based on your goals and management needs. Most often we build websites as bespoke WordPress solutions on Gutenberg, so content is easy to manage and the SEO side stays under control. If the focus is on a campaign landing page and speed, Framer is often a good fit, while for custom logic and integrations Laravel makes more sense.

How much does website development cost?

Our website development starts from 3000 euros. That gets you the structure, design, development on WordPress, the main pages, and a contact form. A larger content site with multiple languages, a blog, search and filters, or booking logic usually falls between 5000 and 15 000 euros. A custom solution with a client portal, calculator, or integration with inventory, accounting, or CRM software behind the site runs up to 30 000 euros and beyond. What moves the price most is the scope of functionality and the number of integrations, not the beauty of the design.

Will the website be mobile-friendly?

Yes. Design and development are done with mobile in mind, so text is readable, buttons are easy to tap, and the user journey is simple. We check that the site works correctly on phones as well as larger screens.

Can I change or add things later?

Yes. Content can be updated on an ongoing basis, and new sections, pages, and features can be added as needed. If you wish, we also offer maintenance and support to keep updates, security, and reliability in order.

CAN I EDIT THE CONTENT MYSELF?

Yes. The site is built so you can easily update text and images yourself. If needed, we provide a short walkthrough so that managing it feels confident and logical.

DO YOU OFFER MAINTENANCE AND ONGOING SUPPORT?

Yes. Maintenance keeps the site up to date, secure, and stable, and we can also help with content changes and small additions when needed.

IS AN AI-BUILT WEBSITE GOOD ENOUGH?

For a quick draft or testing an idea, it can be. A website starts working when the message, structure, measurement, and a clear next step that leads to an inquiry are all in place.

WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT

A STRATEGIC DECISION THAT SHAPES YOUR BUSINESS EVERY DAY

Looking to turn over a new leaf with your website, or start from a completely blank page? If so, you probably already know that finding the right partner is no easy task. The market is full of providers whose skills, price range, and working style vary considerably. Plenty of questions come up: which platform to choose, what a reasonable timeline looks like, and how to make sure the end result is genuinely high quality?

Building a website is a direct investment that pays dividends in your company's credibility, visibility, and sales capability.

Here's a practical overview of
the key aspects to consider before
ordering a website.

How do you find a trustworthy partner? What makes a website effective? What makes up a fair price? And what happens next, once the site is live? We answer honestly and practically, so you can make a decision whose impact lasts for years.

WHAT DO YOU NEED
TO KNOW BEFORE ORDERING
A WEBSITE?

WordPress works for both simple and complex projects – it’s the market-leading choice.

Your visual identity must support your company’s values and speak the same language as your target audience.

More than half of all web traffic comes from mobile devices – a fast, mobile-friendly site isn’t an option, it’s the standard.

Every page must be optimized for search engines – otherwise you’ll miss out on customers.

A good website is built on goals – every button and form should help generate a contact or a sale.

STANDING OUT CREATES REAL VALUE

Your website is the first point of contact between you and your future customer. It’s your brand’s digital business card and a strategic tool that sparks trust and brings in real inquiries and sales. If a website is slow, confusingly structured, or old-fashioned, it can put customers off – signaling that the company itself has fallen behind the times.

As a marketing agency, Marketing Sharks helps its partners navigate the digital landscape with skill, offering a complete solution on four levels: eye-catching visuals, up-to-date content, flawless technical architecture, and a sales strategy that works. Below, get to know the core elements every one of our projects starts from. If you’re planning a budget, see our overview of how much a website costs.

Every website must serve specific business goals. Do you want to increase the number of inquiries, grow brand awareness, or reduce the load on customer support? Our work begins with understanding your target audience and goals, and from there we build the structure, functionality, and content strategy. Marketing Sharks has worked with companies both in Estonia and abroad, so our expertise isn’t based on theory alone but on real-world practice. Over the years, we’ve refined our approach into something a young or inexperienced developer simply can’t offer – because deep understanding comes from experience, not crash courses.

WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS

A CLEAR PATH TO A FINISHED WEBSITE

A clear, well-thought-out plan ensures the desired result. In the website development process, project management is critically important for preventing fundamental mistakes on both the client’s and the provider’s side. Just as a house rests on a well-laid foundation, we build our collaborative projects on a thorough action plan.

Over the years, we’ve refined our action plan and process to produce the best results. Every client is different, and we take our lead from the client. Classically, though, the process of a successful project can be divided into ten steps:

Analysis and strategy

During the kick-off meeting, we map the current situation and the client's business strategies. Based on this, we create the strategy for building the website.

UX – user experience blueprint

Based on the website strategy, we create a structural prototype of the site, where every element is designed to carry the client's business strategy forward.

UI – visual design

Based on the UX structure, we create the visual design – what the website will actually look like.

Development phase

Implementing the design and programming the functionality in line with W3C standards.

Creating and adding content

Writing the copy. Adding copy and media to the website according to the plan.

Testing

Testing and bug fixes. W3C standards test, scalability and multi-device test, user test.

Admin training for the client

Admin training delivered via video call. During the training we also record a screen video, which is later shared with the client.

SEO setup

Standard SEO setup for the website. Configuring page metadata, activating the sitemap, setting up the Google Search Console account. In other words, all the first steps to make your website visible.

Security setup

Configuring security modules for ongoing monitoring and site protection.

Site launch

Taking the site live. Creating a full copy of the site for backup purposes.

To refresh our website, we needed a partner who would contribute ideas while staying practical and focused on delivery. The workshops were very substantive; we talked through the plans together, involving several people from our team. We were also able to make changes flexibly whenever feedback suggested it was needed. The collaboration was businesslike and efficient, and it gave us a tool we can build our other marketing activities around.

Ly Palang, Marketing Partner

Fujitsu Estonia AS

We chose the Marketing Sharks team as our partner because they had been a great partner to us before. With the new website, it was important to us that we could contribute as much as possible ourselves and that our wishes were heard. We got exactly the website we wanted. Special praise goes to their UI and UX designers and developers, who thought along with us and made things work.

Siim Leisalu, CEO

Timbeco Woodhouse OÜ

What I like about Marketing Sharks is that they don't live on some distant, strange technology cloud hovering vaguely somewhere above your company – they have a genuinely strong connection to the company's real needs. A working collaboration in an open atmosphere, focused on what matters. The people are pleasant and know their craft!
