The answer to this depends on you as a buyer. Once you purchase a website design from Avalon Rose Design, I will need you to forward me login information for your website. I need the FTP login info as well as your storeadmin login info. As soon as I get that information, I can get your design installed in less than 24 hours usually. If you do not currently have webhosting with one of the hosts that I work with you will have to sign up before I can install your design. Once you sign up for hosting, it usually takes between 24-72 hours to get your registration email that contains the login information for your site that is mentioned above.
