What does website creation cost? Realistic prices

SolutionPriceWhat you get

Company websitefrom €1,4905–10 pages, contact forms, SEO foundation, training
Larger website€3,000–7,000Multiple languages, bookings, integrations, custom features
Online storefrom €2,490See our separate online store guide

Why do prices vary so much? Because a "website" can mean a business card or a sales machine. A cheap site without strategy, speed and SEO is actually the most expensive one — it simply returns nothing.

Why some websites sell and others don’t

A selling website is not a design-award project. It is a page that answers the visitor’s question faster than the competitor:

0.05s
time it takes to form a first impression
−7%
conversion lost per extra second of loading
60%+
of visits come from phones

The build process step by step

10 questions to ask before ordering

Ask every provider these

  • Will the site be 100% my property?
  • What is the loading speed (Core Web Vitals)?
  • Is an SEO foundation (structure, meta, structured data) included?
  • Can I edit content myself without a developer?
  • Is the mobile view equal, not an afterthought?
  • What happens after launch — maintenance, updates, support?
  • Are forms and analytics set up and tested?
  • Who writes the copy?
  • What previous work and results can you show?
  • What is the exact timeline and what does the price include?

The site is live — what next?

A website without traffic is a shop in the middle of a forest. After launch, three things matter: SEO so Google finds you (free traffic long-term), Google Ads so buyers arrive today, and measurement so you know what works.

We build websites whose goal is enquiries and sales — not just a pretty picture. Ask for a free quote — you’ll get an answer within 24 hours with a concrete plan and price.

How long does building a website take?

A landing page is ready in 1–2 weeks, a typical company website in 3–6 weeks. The timeline mostly depends on content readiness — we also help with copy and photos.

Can I edit the site myself later?

Yes. The site is handed over with training: texts, images, news and prices are yours to edit without a developer.

Can an old site be rebuilt without losing Google rankings?

Yes — that is everyday work for us. We map existing rankings, set up redirects and preserve the SEO value. Rankings often improve, because the new site is faster.
