Yes, starting a project is easy and even finishing a prototype is easy. But if you take the project or product real seriously and need to go for beta and production, quality is the number one concern. If the users first time hit your website and found it's easy broken, probably they will never come back, even if it becomes much better later.

So I've got a very critical question for typically how long it may take from a prototype to beta for most of the start up companies, see my link here:

and I'd like to discuss further in detail on each major tasks which must go through. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks.
