One of the most common questions we receive from small business owners is: "How much does it cost to build a website?" The answer depends on many factors, but in this article, we'll break down all options — from free to premium solutions.
Price Overview by Solution Type
| Solution Type | Price | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| DIY (Wix, Squarespace) | €0–30/month | Hobbyists, personal projects |
| WordPress + theme | €200–500 | Small blogs, portfolios |
| Custom website | €200–900 | Trades, salons, clinics |
| Large agency | €2,000–10,000+ | Corporations, complex projects |
What Influences the Price?
1. Number of Pages
A one-page website with 5 sections costs significantly less than a site with 10+ subpages, a blog, and a gallery. Each additional page requires design, content preparation, and testing.
2. Functionality
Basic features (contact form, Google Maps, gallery) are standard. Advanced features such as booking systems, e-commerce integrations, or multilingual support increase the price.
3. Design
A generic template costs less than a fully custom design tailored to your brand. However, custom design pays off long term because it communicates professionalism and differentiates you from competitors.
4. Technology
WordPress websites require regular maintenance, plugin updates, and hosting that costs €15–50/month. Modern technologies like Astro or Next.js result in faster websites with minimal hosting costs (often €0/month).
5. Maintenance
Don't forget ongoing costs. SSL certificate, domain (€10–15/year), hosting, and occasional content updates — all of these affect the total annual cost of owning a website.

- Ask for a fixed price — avoid "starting from" offers without an upper limit
- Ask about hosting costs — this is a hidden expense many don't mention
- Check performance — request a Lighthouse score above 90
- Ask for previous work — a portfolio says more than promises
- Be cautious with subscriptions — some agencies charge a monthly "rent" for a website that should be yours
