It is the first question most business owners ask, and the honest answer is that it depends. A simple site for a local trade costs far less than an online store with hundreds of products. Here is a plain breakdown of what goes into the price, so you know what you are paying for before you talk to anyone.
What affects the price
Three things move the cost more than anything else: how many pages you need, whether you are selling online, and how much custom design and functionality you want. A five-page site for a plumber is straightforward. A store with payments, inventory, and shipping takes more work. Features like booking systems or client logins add to it again.
The build is not the only cost
A website also needs hosting, a domain name, and regular updates to stay secure. Some businesses handle this themselves. Others prefer a support plan so someone keeps the site running without them having to think about it.
Simple site or online store
If you just need to show what you do and let people contact you, a standard business website is the affordable option. If you want to sell products, an ecommerce build costs more because there is more to set up: product pages, checkout, payments, shipping, and tax.
