Things that can affect the final quote
Here’s exactly what can change your project budget — some are optional, some are scoped separately.
Six things that move the number
What separates a $1,000 quote from a $6,000 one.
More pages mean more layouts, content, and QA time.
A design built around your brand takes real hours; a styled template doesn’t.
Bookings, memberships, and stores add development work beyond static pages.
CRMs, payment providers, and booking tools each add setup and testing time.
Writing and organizing the words is often a bigger job than building the pages.
A site built to actually rank and load fast takes more care than one built to just exist.
Where your budget goes
Six steps, from first call to launch.
Scope, goals, and package confirmed.
Layout and visual direction built and approved.
Pages built on WordPress, structured to scale.
Copy, media, forms, and third-party tools connected.
Cross-device, cross-browser, and speed checks.
Site goes live, verified and monitored.
Timelines also depend on how quickly feedback and content come back from your side.
No hourly billing surprises

Questions about pricing
How much does a WordPress website cost?
Most small-business projects fall between $800 and $6,000+, depending on page count, whether the design is custom or template-based, and whether e-commerce or custom functionality is involved. Use the calculator above for an estimate based on your specific scope.
Why is there such a large price range?
A website isn’t one product. The price depends on how many unique pages are needed, how custom the design is, what functionality is involved, and how much content needs to be prepared. Two projects that look similar on the surface can require very different amounts of work underneath.
What is the difference between template and custom design?
A template-based site adapts an existing, proven layout to your brand and content — faster and more affordable. A fully custom design is built from scratch around your brand specifically, which takes more design and development time but gives you something no one else has.
Can you redesign an existing WordPress site?
Yes. Redesigns are scoped similarly to new builds, with the added step of reviewing what exists — content, plugins, and any custom functionality — before quoting.
Do you work with WooCommerce?
Yes, WooCommerce stores fall under the Custom package, since pricing depends on catalog size, payment setup, and any custom store functionality.
Can I start with Basic and upgrade later?
Yes. Many projects start smaller and grow. Since sites are built on standard WordPress foundations, adding pages or functionality later is a normal, scoped project rather than a rebuild.
Can I get a fixed-price quote?
Yes. Once scope is confirmed during discovery, every project is quoted at a fixed price, not billed by the hour.
