    FAQ

    All the answers to your most common questions

    How many years of experience do you have?

    I have extensive experience in software development, administration, and training. Over the years, I’ve led and contributed to numerous web and mobile projects, managed teams, and delivered effective training programs. My work combines technical skill with strategic planning to create efficient, user-focused digital solutions that drive real impact.

    The average timeframe for branding work typically ranges from 2 to 8 weeks, depending on the scope and depth of the project. A basic branding package — which includes a logo, color palette, and typography — usually takes about 2 to 3 weeks. If a full visual identity is required, including brand strategy, voice, and brand guidelines, the process often extends to 4 to 6 weeks. For comprehensive branding that involves market research, competitor analysis, and building a complete brand system, the timeframe can stretch to 6 to 8 weeks or more.

    When it comes to software development, timelines vary based on the type of program:

    • Landing pages or basic websites typically take 1 to 2 weeks.

    • Custom business websites or portfolio sites take around 3 to 5 weeks.

    • E-commerce platforms generally require 5 to 8 weeks for full functionality, including payment systems and product management.

    • Mobile or web applications can range from 8 to 16+ weeks depending on features, integrations, and platforms (iOS, Android, web).

    • Enterprise systems or software with complex backend logic may take several months due to planning, development, and testing phases.

    🕒 Estimated Web Development Timelines

    1. Basic Website (Landing Page / Static Site)
      ⏳ 1 to 2 weeks

      • Few pages (Home, About, Contact)

      • Minimal interactivity

      • Mostly HTML/CSS/JS

    2. Standard Business Website / Portfolio
      ⏳ 3 to 5 weeks

      • Custom design

      • Multiple pages

      • Contact forms, blog, light CMS

    3. E-commerce Website

    4. Web Application / SaaS Platform

      • User authentication

      • Real-time features (chat, dashboards)

      • API integrations, databases, admin panels

    ⏱️ Factors That Influence Timelines

    • Scope and number of features

    • Design complexity

    • Custom vs. template-based development

    • Client feedback speed

    • Content readiness (text, images, etc.)

    💼 1. Scope of Work

    The bigger and more complex the project, the higher the fee. For example:

    • Basic logo design vs. full brand identity

    • Single-page website vs. multi-page custom site

    • UI design only vs. UI + front-end development

    ⏳ 2. Time & Effort Required

    I estimate how many hours or days the project will take, then calculate based on:

    • Hourly rate (for flexible or open-ended tasks)

    • Fixed rate (for clearly defined projects)

    📐 3. Project Type & Deliverables

    Each type of design has a different pricing range:

    • Branding

    • Web/UI design

    • Print materials

    • Social media kits

    • App interfaces

    The more deliverables and revisions needed, the more this affects the pricing.

    🤝 4. Client Size & Value

    I consider the client’s business size and how the design will impact their brand:

    • Startups and small businesses might have smaller budgets

    • Corporates or funded startups usually have higher expectations and budgets

    🚀 5. Licensing & Usage

    If the design will be used commercially on a large scale, or resold, fees will include usage rights or licensing costs.

    💬 6. Revisions & Support

    I include a set number of revisions. If the client requires ongoing support or extra revisions, those are factored in.
