Why Speed Matters in Website Building
In today's fast-paced business environment, speed to market is everything. Every day without a website costs a typical small business around £200 in lost revenue opportunity. 88% of consumers research businesses online before visiting or calling. First impressions are formed within 0.05 seconds of a page loading.
The good news? Modern AI technology has made it possible to go from nothing to a live professional website in under ten minutes — without sacrificing quality.
What You'll Need Before Starting
The more prepared you are, the faster and smoother the process will be. Have these ready:

- Contact information (phone, email, address)
- Brief business description (2–3 sentences)
- Target audience (who are your customers?)
Helpful Assets (Optional)
- Logo (high-resolution PNG or SVG)

Don't worry if you're missing some of the optional assets. Modern AI website builders like ChilledSites can generate professional content, suggest appropriate colour schemes, and structure your pages without them.
