How Much Does A Website Cost? Well, it depends.

Technically, you can build a website for a small business for free using some platforms. Others are available for a small monthly charge.

But there’s always a catch when you rely on a basic website builder for your project.

• First, your free website will contain ads.
• Second, many key features aren’t included with a free account.
• And finally, the free or minimum payment web design platforms often give you little freedom to improve your technical SEO.

So, maybe the better question is, “How much does a GOOD website cost?”

That means a feature-rich, search engine friendly, and ad-free site that represents your business well and is easy for visitors to navigate and use.

When you’re building a website your final price depends on the size of the site and its complexity and functionality.

A 10-page website with standard features will cost less than a highly-customized 50-page e-commerce website that accepts online payment.

You’re able to establish more realistic expectations about cost if you have a general idea of what you need in your website.

Here are a few questions to ask as you’re preparing for the project:

How many pages of content do I need? (The avg for small business website is 10 to 13 pages)

Is my website going to be mostly informational, or do I also want people to be able to schedule appointments, order products or complete other transactions online?

What sort of premium plugins are necessary to achieve the functionality I want?

How much customization do I want for layout, logos, images and graphics?

How important is it for me to be able to make small changes myself?
