How much does a website for a small business cost?
It depends on who builds it and what it includes: from a few hundred euros with a template to several thousand with an agency. What changes the price most over time is not the site itself but what you pay every year to keep it.
The options, from cheapest to most expensive
- Building it yourself on Wix, Squarespace or similar: cheap to start, but you pay a fee every year for as long as it exists, and the time is yours.
- A template set up by someone: cheaper than your own design, but it looks like many others and usually loads more than it needs to.
- A freelancer with your own design: a fixed price, and you talk to the person building it.
- An agency: more people and more process, and a higher price.
What you pay every year
The domain (a few tens of euros a year at most for a .es or a .com), the hosting, and the platform fee if the site lives on one. Always ask what you will pay in the second year, not just the first.
What moves the price up or down
- The number of pages and languages.
- Whether there is an online shop, bookings or payments.
- Whether you have the text and photos or they need making.
- Whether an old site has to be moved without losing what it already has on Google.
What to ask before you pay
- Is the price fixed or by the hour?
- Will the domain be in my name?
- What will I pay every year afterwards?
- Can I change provider without losing the site?
- Will it need a cookie banner?
