Restoration time depends on the size and complexity of your website. Most restorations complete within a few business days. Below are the typical timelines, the factors that can speed things up or slow them down, and a walkthrough of how delivery works from start to finish.

​
Typical timelines

Site sizeEstimated time
Small (up to ~10 pages)2–4 business days
Medium (10–50 pages)4–7 business days
Large (50+ pages)7–10+ business days
These estimates cover the restoration work itself. Your response time during the review stage affects the overall turnaround.

​
Factors that affect the timeline

Several variables influence how long your specific restoration takes:
  • Number of pages — more pages means more content to recover and reconstruct
  • Archive completeness — sites with fuller Wayback Machine coverage restore faster and more accurately
  • Restoration format — WordPress restorations involve additional setup compared to HTML
  • Special requests or revisions — custom work or multiple revision rounds add time

​
Delivery process

Once work begins, your restoration moves through four stages:
1

Restoration work

The team recovers your site from available archives and rebuilds it in your chosen format (HTML or WordPress).
2

Initial delivery

You receive the first version of the restored site for review. The team shares a preview link or delivers the files, depending on your setup.
3

Review and revisions

You review the restored site and flag anything that needs adjusting. The team handles revision requests promptly.
4

Final handover

Once you approve the result, you receive all files or a live setup — whichever applies to your restoration type.
Custom restoration and development work is available on request if your site needs features beyond a standard restoration.
