A website's price is driven by the amount of work, not the number of pages: design, features, integrations and content. That is why quotes range so widely. Here is what actually moves the number — and where you can safely save.
What the price is made of
- Design: a template is cheaper; a bespoke layout costs more.
- Scope: the number of unique pages and blocks.
- Features: forms, accounts, payments, calculators, multilingual content.
- Integrations: CRM, payment providers, analytics, ERP.
- Content: text and images — yours or produced for you.
Rough ranges by type
| Type | Complexity | Timeline |
|---|---|---|
| Landing page | low | from 1 week |
| Corporate site | medium | from 2–4 weeks |
| Online store | high | from 4 weeks |
For NorthMountain, a hand-coded landing page starts around €150 and a multilingual corporate site scales from there. Which type you actually need is covered in this guide.
Why very cheap offers are risky
A price far below market usually means a rigid template, no revisions, no support, or hidden charges later. The site then needs rebuilding — which costs more than doing it right once.
Compare scope, not headline price: revisions, content, responsive design, support and source-code handover are where the real difference hides.
How to save without regret
- Start with the minimum you need and expand as you grow.
- Prepare your own text and images — it lowers the cost.
- Use a proven CMS for standard needs instead of custom code.
