Get an exact quoteThe biggest cost drivers are normally how much needs building, how much content needs creating, and how much logic sits behind the pages. A five-page service website can be fast to produce because the journey is simple. A booking platform needs availability rules, payments, admin tools and testing. Ecommerce adds product structure, payment processing, shipping and customer accounts.
Design quality matters, but design does not need to become theatre. A strong small-business website can still be affordable when the scope is controlled and the content process is efficient.
If the old website contains useful pages, products, images or search rankings, migration work is priced properly rather than ignored. Keeping what already works is often cheaper than destroying it and fixing the damage later.
How many core pages and landing pages are included.
Whether you are supplying polished copy or we are writing and structuring it.
Responsive behaviour should be part of the job, not a bolt-on.
Titles, descriptions, headings, crawlability and internal links should be ready at launch.
Where enquiries go, whether they are stored and how spam is handled.
What you own after payment and which third-party licences remain external.
They are guide starting prices. The exact quote depends on page count, content, functionality, integrations and migration work.

No. Quotes are free and there is no obligation.
The cost rises when the site needs custom software, large product catalogues, complex booking rules, user accounts, integrations, data migration or unusually large amounts of bespoke content.
