Website prices vary enormously. Some agencies quote lakhs, some freelancers quote a few thousand, and template builders charge monthly. The right price depends on what you actually need. Here is how to think about it.
What affects the cost
- Number of pages. A one-page site is quicker than a site with six or more sections.
- Custom design vs template. A design made around your business takes more care than a recycled template.
- Features. A contact form is simple. Online ordering, bookings and blogs need more work.
- Content. Writing and photos take time. Sites go live faster when you provide them.
- Hosting and domain. These are yearly costs, separate from the design.
Watch out for these
- Monthly fees for a site you can never take with you.
- A domain registered in the agency's name instead of yours.
- Extra charges for mobile-friendly design or basic search settings.
- No way to make small edits after launch.

A cheap website that nobody trusts is more expensive than a fair one that brings customers.
How to decide
Start with the simplest site that explains what you do and how to reach you. Add a blog or online ordering when you are ready. It is always easier to grow a good small site than to repair a bad big one.
