What makes a website cost more?
- Custom design versus a template. A design made around your brand takes more time than adapting an existing layout.
- Number of pages. Each service, location or product page needs its own structure and content.
- Functionality. Bookings, online stores, member areas, custom filters, payment gateways and API integrations all add development time.
- Content. Writing copy, sourcing images and producing case studies is real work if you do not have them ready.
- Branding. A new logo and identity system is usually a separate project.
- SEO set-up. Keyword research, page structure and technical set-up take time but pay back in visibility.
What ongoing costs should you budget for?
- Domain name: a small yearly fee.
- Website plan or hosting: a monthly or yearly fee to your platform or host; check the current price on the provider's website.
- Apps and plugins: some features, such as advanced booking or forms, have their own subscription.
- Maintenance: updates, backups and small changes, so the site keeps working as your business changes.
- Content and SEO: new articles and page improvements keep the site growing after launch.
Is a cheap website a false economy?
Not always. A simple, well-made template site is the right starting point for many new businesses. It becomes a false economy when it cannot be updated, loads slowly, looks generic next to competitors, or has to be rebuilt within a year. Ask what is included, who owns the site and what happens after launch before comparing prices.
How do you get an accurate quote?

- List the pages you need and any features such as bookings or a store.
- Share two or three websites you like, and why.
- Decide whether you need copywriting, branding or SEO.
- Give your ideal launch date.
