Questions about website cost.
How much does a custom website cost?
Published agency guides put a serious custom business site at roughly $8,000 to $25,000, mid-market builds at $15,000 to $75,000, and custom headless or Next.js marketing sites at $15,000 to $60,000. Scope drives the price: pages, copy, design, integrations and languages.
How much is a Webtec Premium site?
A Premium build starts from $4,000. The price depends on pages, the copy and design we create, integrations, CMS needs, languages and migration, and we quote it after the research, before you commit. The the full package is the build plus $1,999 a month: SEO, AEO and GEO, search marketing, upkeep and a Business Growth Manager.
Why is a custom website more than a template?
A template is a design you adapt. A custom site starts from your positioning, your customers and your goals, then designs, writes and builds around them. That takes research, design, copy and engineering time.
Are there hidden fees?
We list what is in the quote and what is not before you commit. Hosting follows the terms we agree, CMS costs go to the provider directly, and we tell you the expected figures up front.
Can I pay in stages?
We agree the payment schedule in the quote before work starts.
