Astro if speed and SEO are paramount, and your team is comfortable with structured content. We recommend on the discovery call based on your team and content cadence. ### Can you really deliver in 1-2 weeks? Yes, for the Starter package. We use AI-leveraged development to compress the build phase. Discovery and design happen first, then build runs in days, not weeks. Larger packages take longer because there's more to design and build. ### What's included in 90+ Lighthouse scores? Performance, accessibility, SEO, and best practices each scoring 90+ on Google's Lighthouse audit. We test on production before handoff and include the report in your launch package. If the site drops below 90 within 30 days for reasons under our control, we fix it free. ### Will the site rank in AI search? We optimize for AI crawler visibility (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot), implement llms.txt, and structure content for passage-level citation. Whether you rank for a specific query depends on content depth and competitive landscape, but we set you up to compete properly. Most sites we build start showing up in AI responses within 60-90 days. ### Can you migrate my existing site? Yes. Migration is included in Growth and Ecommerce packages and available as an add-on for Starter. We preserve content, redirects, SEO equity, and analytics history. ## Ready to launch a site that performs? Tell us about your project. We'll come back with a recommended package, timeline, and price.
