A straightforward brochure site typically costs £1,500-£5,000, while a website with custom design, a CMS, and integrations can run £5,000-£15,000. Complex e-commerce or bespoke web applications often exceed £20,000. Page count, design complexity, and functionality are the main cost drivers.
Pricing differences usually come down to scope clarity - some quotes include content writing, SEO setup, and post-launch support while others cover design and build only. Agency location, seniority of the team, and whether the site is built on a template versus fully custom also significantly affect price.
DIY builders like Squarespace or Wix cost £15-£40 monthly and suit very simple sites, but hiring a developer typically pays off once you need custom functionality, strong SEO foundations, or brand differentiation. This calculator estimates realistic costs based on your specific feature requirements.
E-commerce functionality, custom booking or quoting systems, multi-language support, and bespoke design (rather than templates) are the biggest cost drivers, often adding £2,000-£8,000 each. A CMS for easy content updates is comparatively affordable and worth prioritising for most UK SMEs.
