Design Revisions: What You Need to Know
If you're working with me on web design and development, understanding design revisions is important for a smooth project experience.
What Are Design Revisions?
A design revision is any client-requested change to the design after the initial draft is delivered.
How I Count Revisions
Simple rule: I count sessions, not individual changes.
Here’s how it works:
One Session = One Revision
You can send multiple changes in a single document, and that counts as one revision session.
Example:
Let’s say your website has 5 pages and you request:
- 2 changes across all pages
- 3 specific changes on the homepage
- 2 changes on the service page
- 1 change on the contact page
Total changes: 8
Revisions used: 1
Why? Because all these changes were sent together in one session.
What's Included
I provide 3 free design revision sessions with every project.
How the Process Works:
Round 1:
- I complete the first draft of your web design
- I send it to you for review
- You create a feedback document with:
- Screenshots of each section
- Your comments below each screenshot
- All requested changes clearly marked
- I make all the changes
Round 2:
- I send the updated design
- You review to check if I missed anything or need clarification
- If you want new changes (not corrections), this counts as your second revision
- You now have 1 revision remaining
Round 3:
- Final round of changes included in the project

Best Practices for Revision Requests
✅ Consolidate your feedback – Review the entire design and send all changes at once
✅ Use screenshots – Visual references help avoid confusion
✅ Be specific – Clear descriptions save time and reduce back-and-forth
✅ Involve stakeholders early – Get all decision-makers to review together
This approach ensures efficient project workflow while giving you flexibility to refine the design to your needs.
