What decides the cost of a website?
- Number of pages
- Every page needs design, content and testing, so a 3-page site costs far less than a 20-page site.
- Custom design or a template
- A design made from scratch takes more hours than a customised template.
- Who writes the content
- If the developer writes your text or arranges photos, the price goes up. Sending your own content saves money.
- Online payments and products
- Cart, checkout, payment gateway, product uploads, stock and orders all add work.
- Integrations
- WhatsApp, Google Maps, booking systems, CRMs and APIs each add a little more.
- SEO setup
- Basic SEO (titles, sitemap) is quick; complete on-page SEO across every page takes longer.
- Freelancer or agency
- Freelancers usually cost less; agencies add project managers and design teams.
