How Much Does a Business Website Cost in 2026?
See prices for landing pages, business websites and online stores, plus delivery times, what is included and which extras may affect the final cost.
When a business owner asks, “How much does a website cost?”, the answer is often, “It depends on the project.” That is true, but it does not help you plan. Here are my prices and what affects them. You can also use the website cost calculator to estimate your project in 30 seconds.
At a glance: prices and timelines
| What you need | Who it is for | Timeline | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| One-page website | A tradesperson, expert, portfolio or wedding invitation | 1 day | From $100 |
| Landing page | One service or an advertising campaign | 1-2 days | From $300 |
| Multi-page business website | A salon, clinic, service business or company | 3-5 days | $500-900 |
| Landing page with a cart | Food delivery or a small product range | 5-7 days | From $700 |
| Online store | A business selling products online | 7-14 days | From $1,300 |
| Redesign | An existing website that does not bring in enquiries | As for a new build | $20 per section |
The timeline starts once you have provided the text, photos and access needed for the work. If the content is not ready, we gather it together first. Otherwise, a “one-day” build can turn into a week of waiting.
What is included in the price
Even with the simplest option, you get a working tool for your business, not just a design:
- a website that is easy to use on a phone, where many of your customers will visit it;
- an enquiry form that sends notifications straight to you in Telegram;
- basic SEO so Google can understand what your website offers and where your business is;
- help with your domain and hosting;
- 3 rounds of changes and 30 days of fixes after launch.
From the landing page option upwards, you also get a way to edit prices, photos and text yourself, without asking a developer.
What affects the price
- The number of pages and sections. A landing page section, such as an introduction, services, reviews or FAQs, takes about an hour of work. That is why I price redesigns by section: it gives you a clearer figure than a vague starting quote.
- Payments and a shopping cart. Adding products, payments and order statuses makes the job several times bigger than building a page that collects enquiries.
- Whether the design is ready. If you already have a design in Figma, I can build from it. If you do not, we create the design together, and that time is part of the project.
- Integrations. These might include a CRM, delivery services, online booking or Google Sheets. Simple integrations are included in the packages. I quote for more complex ones separately before work starts.
What you may need to pay for separately
To help you plan for the full cost:
- Domain and hosting. You pay for these separately. They should be registered in your name, not the developer’s. If you want me to choose, buy and set everything up for you, that costs an extra $100.
- Google Maps listing. Creating and setting up a Google Business Profile costs $100 when done alongside your website.
- Advertising setup. Adding Meta Pixel, Google Analytics and enquiry tracking costs $80.
- Support after launch. If you need regular changes and updates, support costs $200 per month or $20 per hour.
- Enquiry bot. If you want a bot to collect enquiries and forward them to you, Telegram bots and automated replies for businesses start at $500.
We can discuss your requirements remotely, wherever your business is based.
Why not use a free website builder?
Tilda and Wix do let you build a website yourself. The question is how many evenings it will take and whether the result will guide visitors towards making an enquiry. A website put together just to have one can lose a potential customer who visits and leaves without getting in touch.
If you have the time and want to learn, a website builder may suit you. If your time is worth more than the $300 cost of a ready-made landing page, it may be simpler to hand the work to someone who builds these sites every day.
How to avoid overpaying
Get the price and timeline in writing before work starts, pay in stages and check whose name the domain is registered under. For a step-by-step guide and a message you can send to a developer, read how to check a web developer before paying.
What to prepare so your website can be built faster
- A short description of your business: what you sell, who you serve and what makes you different.
- Your prices, or at least starting prices.
- Photos of you, your team, your premises and your work. Real photos work better than stock images.
- 3-5 customer reviews, if you have them.
- Examples of websites you like.
None of this has to be perfect. We can work on some of the text together.
