A small business website from us costs between £960 and £6,750, and an online shop from £4,500. Where yours lands depends on four things: how many pages it has, how much of the content we prepare, what extra functionality you need, and whether you sell online.
What decides the price
A website is a piece of craft, and like most crafts the cost follows the time it takes. These are the things that move it.
- The number of pages, and how varied the layouts are
- How much of the writing and photography is ready, and how much we prepare
- Extra functionality, such as booking, member areas and integrations
- Whether you are selling products online
Typical ranges
| Kind of site | Typical price | Typical size |
|---|---|---|
| Start-up single page (qualifying orders) | £299 | 1 page |
| Single-page website | £960–£1,600 | 1 page |
| Business brochure website | £1,800–£3,500 | 4–6 pages |
| Expanded business website | £3,600–£6,750 | 7–15 pages |
| E-commerce website | £4,500–£12,000+ | Online shop |
Those are our prices, and they sit where you would expect against the market. Site builders such as Wix and Squarespace cost a monthly subscription rather than a build fee, freelancers commonly quote somewhere between £500 and £3,500 for a one-off build, and agencies quote from about £2,500 upwards for a bespoke content-managed site (Brambla’s 2026 UK website cost guide).
Starting a business, or getting online for the first time? Our start-up offer is a single-page website for £299.
Costs after launch
Hosting, your domain name and any changes you ask us to make are the running costs. Hosting is £79 a year on the small plan and £156 a year on the standard plan. A domain name, with its DNS zone, is £28 a year for a .com and £13 a year for a .uk. We are not VAT registered, so the price you are quoted is the price you pay.

Two quotes for “a five-page website” can differ by thousands, and the cheaper one is not always the one that costs less. These are the questions that usually explain the gap.
- Who writes the words? Copy is the most commonly excluded item, and the one most likely to stall a project for months.
- Whose photographs? Stock images are cheap and can look it. Ask whether a shoot is included, and what it costs if not.
- Can you edit it afterwards? A site you cannot change yourself means paying somebody every time a price or an opening time moves.
- What does it cost to run? Hosting, the domain, the security certificate and any licensed plug-ins. Ask for the annual figure, not the monthly one.
- Who owns the domain and the site? Both should be registered in your name. If they are not, changing supplier later is painful.
- What happens after launch? How changes are charged, how quickly they are done, and whether there is a minimum contract.
Get all of it in writing before you agree to anything. A supplier who will not put the scope and the price on paper is telling you something useful.
