What drives the price
A website’s price depends less on the number of pages than on what the site has to do: how custom the design is, whether it takes payments, how many systems it connects to and who builds it.
- Who builds it: a template builder, a freelancer, a small studio or a larger agency
- Design: an adapted template or a fully custom design
- Features: booking, online payments, customer login
- Integrations: accounting, stock, CRM or delivery services
- Languages: one language or several with a proper search setup
Typical project types
A brochure site for a local business is the simplest project and usually the quickest to launch. An online shop adds a catalogue, checkout, delivery zones and ƏDV handling. A custom platform, such as a booking system or customer portal, is a software project rather than a website.
Costs people forget
The build quote is not the whole cost. Domain, hosting, security updates, backups, content changes and small improvements continue every year, and a good supplier states them upfront.
- Domain and hosting renewals
- Security and software updates
- Backups and monitoring
- Content changes and photography
- Payment-provider fees
How to compare quotes
Ask each supplier what is included, who owns the code and design, how long support lasts and what a change request costs. A fixed quote in AZN excluding ƏDV, with the scope written down, makes quotes comparable.
