Frances displayed a high degree in patience in making our dreams come true as much of our decision making was by committee which can be a challenge to some. Frances is the ultimate professional.

One of Frances’ truly unique qualities is her ability to transfer my vision for the project into actual working, functioning pages. Her quality is first-rate, and her ability to responsibly meet deadlines is very rare in my experience.
Museum and cultural institution website rebuilds at Goldlilys Media start at $12,000 for a Sprout project and scale to $20,000 for a Growth project and $32,000 and above for a Bloom project, depending on the complexity of your programs, the number of audiences the site serves, and any integrations such as ticketing, membership, or collections systems.
Every project includes AI Search Visibility strategy. If you are unsure which level fits your institution, the Executive Website Clarity Assessment is the right first step.
Most museum website rebuilds take 10 to 16 weeks from the Discover step through launch, depending on scope and the speed of internal content review and stakeholder approvals. Institutions with board or committee-based decision processes should plan for the longer end of that range and designate a single internal point of contact to keep the project moving.
A refresh updates surface elements: photography, text, colors - without addressing the underlying structure. A rebuild restructures the site from the foundation: how audiences are served, how programs are organized, how the site is maintained, and how it will evolve as the institution grows.
When staff hesitate to update the site, when navigation no longer reflects current exhibitions or programs, or when the site no longer reflects the institution as it exists today, a rebuild is warranted. The Executive Website Clarity Assessment clarifies which applies before you commit budget or board approval.
Yes. Every Website Masterpiece Journey includes one month of post-launch support. Ongoing care continues through the Sunlight Monthly Retainer: consistent maintenance, security updates, backups, and quiet improvements that keep the site stable and current as the institution evolves.
