24-Hour Website Delivery: How We Do It (Why NO Competitor Offers This)
September 14, 2025 by AppWT Web & AI Solutions
📋 What This Means (Simple)
24-hour website delivery means your professional website goes live tomorrow, not 4-6 weeks from now. AppWT is the ONLY Michigan agency offering this because we've perfected the process over 28 years. This article shows you exactly how we do it.
The Industry Standard is Painfully Slow
Let's be honest about what most agencies promise vs what actually happens:
Weeks
National agencies (WebFX, Lounge Lizard)
Weeks
Local Michigan agencies
Hours
AppWT (guaranteed or FREE)
Why the difference? Other agencies have bloated processes, committee approvals, sales teams, and multiple designers who hand off work. We stripped all that out.
When You Actually NEED a Website in 24 Hours
This isn't a gimmick. Real Michigan businesses need fast delivery for legitimate reasons:
🚨 Emergency Situations
Your website got hacked: Ransomware or security breach - you need to replace it NOW, not in 6 weeks
Hosting company went down: They closed overnight, your site is gone, customers are calling asking what happened
Fired your old developer: They deleted everything and won't give you access - you're offline
⏰ Time-Sensitive Opportunities
Media opportunity: Local news wants to feature you tomorrow - but they need a website link
Sudden contract win: You landed a big client who wants to check out your website before signing
Investor meeting: Pitch is Friday, investors will Google you - you need to look professional
📅 Event Deadlines
Product launch: Physical products arriving Monday, you need online sales ready NOW
Campaign deadline: Political campaign, charity drive, seasonal event - can't wait weeks
Trade show tomorrow: Forgot to update site, handing out business cards with your URL
Why Other Agencies Take 4-6 Weeks
Before I explain how we deliver in 24 hours, let me show you why competitors are so slow. Understanding their process helps you appreciate ours.
⏱️ Week 1: Sales & Discovery (7 days)
You fill out their form. Sales team calls you in 2-3 days. They schedule a "discovery call" for next week. Then they send you a questionnaire. Then they schedule ANOTHER call to review your answers.
Our approach: 30-minute call, we gather everything we need, done.
⏱️ Week 2-3: Design Mockups (14 days)
Designer creates mockups. Project manager reviews them. Creative director reviews them. They schedule a meeting to show you. You request changes. They schedule another meeting. This takes 2 weeks minimum.
Our approach: Skip mockups. We build the actual site. You see it live, request changes in real-time.
⏱️ Week 4-5: Development (14 days)
Designer hands off to developer. Developer asks questions. Designer is busy with other clients. Communication delays. Developer builds it. QA team tests it. Finds bugs. Developer fixes them. QA tests again.
Our approach: One person (who knows what they're doing after 28 years) designs AND codes simultaneously.
⏱️ Week 6: Launch (7 days)
IT team needs to provision hosting. DNS takes 24-48 hours to propagate. They forgot to order SSL certificate. Project manager is on vacation. Finally launches... with broken links.
Our approach: Pre-configured hosting, instant DNS, SSL ready, tested before handoff.

Here's our step-by-step process that we've perfected over 13,000+ projects:
⏰ Hour 0-0.5: Intake Call (30 minutes)
What happens: You talk directly to the founder (not a salesperson). We gather:
- What your business does
- Your target customers
- Colors and branding preferences
- 5-7 pages you need
- Any special features
- Content/photos you have (or we write it)
Why it's fast: After 28 years, we know exactly what questions to ask. No fluff, no sales pitch, just the info we need to build.

Why NO Other Michigan Agency Offers This
We're not bragging - we're the ONLY agency in Michigan with a 24-hour guarantee. Here's why competitors can't match it:
🔮 Why They Can't Compete
- Too Many Cooks: Large agencies have 5-10 people touch each project. Coordination takes time.
- Inexperienced Teams: Junior developers need supervision, multiple revisions, lots of trial and error.
- Rigid Processes: Corporate procedures require approvals, documentation, meetings for everything.
- Inefficient Tools: They use outdated workflows that require manual steps we've automated.
- Lack of Expertise: They haven't done 13,000+ websites. We have patterns and systems they don't.
- Afraid to Guarantee: They know they can't deliver consistently, so they won't promise it.
Common Questions About 24-Hour Delivery
🔧 Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What if I need more than 5 pages?
A: Each additional page adds 2-4 hours. We can deliver 10 pages in 36 hours, 15 pages in 48 hours, etc.
Q: Can I get e-commerce in 24 hours?
A: Simple stores (10-20 products) yes. Complex inventory systems need 48-72 hours.
Q: What if I don't have content/photos ready?
A: We write professional copy and use stock photos, then you swap in your materials later. Or delay start until you're ready.
Q: Do you work through the night?
A: Sometimes! For urgent projects, yes. For standard 24-hour delivery, we optimize our schedule for maximum efficiency during business hours.
Q: What's the catch? Why is it the same price as 4-week delivery?
A: No catch. Same price ($997-$2,497) whether it takes 24 hours or 1 week. Speed is our competitive advantage - we don't charge extra for being good at what we do.
Q: What if you miss the 24-hour deadline?
A: We've never missed it in 300+ 24-hour projects. But if we did, it's FREE. That's the guarantee.
When 24-Hour Delivery Might NOT Be Right
We're honest about this - 24-hour delivery isn't for everyone:
❌ Complex Custom Applications
If you need custom database systems, API integrations, member portals - that takes longer. We're talking weeks, not days.
Timeline: 2-6 weeks depending on complexity
❌ You're Still Deciding on Content
If you don't know what pages you need, haven't decided on messaging, want to "figure it out as we go" - not a good fit for 24-hour delivery.
Timeline: Wait until you're ready, THEN do 24-hour delivery
❌ Committee Approval Required
If every change needs board approval or multiple stakeholders need to weigh in - the delays are on your end, not ours.
Timeline: Standard 1-2 week timeline works better
Pricing for 24-Hour Delivery
Here's the beautiful part - 24-hour delivery is the SAME PRICE as standard delivery:
- Starter Package: $997 - 5 pages, mobile-responsive, SEO-ready
- Professional Package: $2,497 - 10 pages, advanced SEO, AI optimization
- Add-Ons: E-commerce (+$1,000), AI optimization (+$397), extra pages (+$150/each)
No rush fees. No hidden charges. Same price whether you choose 24-hour delivery or standard timeline.
