"What does a website cost?" is the question we get most often. And the honest answer, "it depends", sounds like a dodge. It isn't. Here you'll read exactly what it depends on, where your money goes, and which ballpark prices you can plan around.
Why there's no fixed price tag
A website isn't a product you grab off the shelf. A compact five-page site is something entirely different from a platform with a webshop, member accounts and integrations with other systems. The scope, your goals and the functionality you want together determine the price.
Compare it to a renovation: 'what does renovating a house cost?' depends on whether you're painting a wall or building an extension. With a website it's no different.
Where your money goes
A good website is more than a design. The price sits in the whole journey:
- Strategy & structure, goal, audience and the right build-up
- Visual design, a design that fits your brand
- Development, built fast, secure and easy to manage
- Content & CMS, so you can update it easily yourself
- Tech, SEO & performance, findable and fast from the ground up
- Testing & go-live, no surprises afterwards
- Aftercare, maintenance and further development after go-live

Cheap can be expensive
A ready-made template for a few hundred euros looks attractive, but it often costs you more in missed customers: slow, unclear or impossible to find. At the same time, you don't always need the most expensive solution. The art is matching the investment to what the site needs to deliver.
A website that brings in one extra customer a month usually pays for itself within a year.
