When building a website (regardless of who is building it) there are 4 main factors that affect the cost:
- Functionality
- Design
- Content
- Size
Functionality
Do you need a simple information website, or do you need an eCommerce website? Do you want a landing page, or a complete website with blog?
What you want your website to do, will be the first thing that affects the price. Developing complex functionalities take time, and will therefore affect the cost.
Design
You can choose an “out-of-the-box” design (i.e. template) which is the default choice for most developers. Or you can have a custom design created specifically for your brand.
Templates are mass produced for the public & therefore cheaper. Custom designs take time & expertise to create, therefore they are more costly.
A good website is a website that stands out from the competitors – something that is hard to achieve when everyone is using templates.
Content
Supplying your own text & images in the right format will reduce the cost of your site. However, if you need a designer to create custom graphics, or a copywriter to write catchy headlines then you will pay more.
Having creative experts design your website and write your copy is ideal, because you can be sure that your website will be impressive.
Size
It goes without saying that the more pages, categories or products you have the more your website will cost. Most web developers will include a certain amount of pages in their base website package, and anything over that pushes the price up.
Other factors to consider
(and yes, they matter)
When selecting a web design company or freelancer, the not-so-obvious things that will affect the cost of your website are:
- Overheads
- Experience
- Expertise
Again, these things vary from web designer to web designer, but they will invariably factor into the price.
Overheads
When you bought your iPhone or Samsung, you didn’t just pay for the phone – you paid for the work that went into marketing, shipping & manufacturing of the phone.
The same goes for websites, you are also paying for the “cost” that was involved in building your website. This includes electricity, internet, phone calls and even cups of coffee! The more overheads, the more the website will cost.
Experience
An agency that has been developing professional websites for 20 years will (and should) charge more than freelancers with a year of experience.
Experienced web designers will give you better advice and guidance because they have been there and bought the t-shirt. At the end of the day you will get a more superior product.
Expertise
Having experience does not make you an expert.
Experience means you have done something a lot. Expertise means you have done something a lot, and you do it well.
Website experts are people who have dedicated themselves to designing and building websites. It’s not just something they do “when they have got a moment”.
You will pay top rates for website experts – because they know the value they can offer you is more than just a pretty website. It’s a website that can turn casual browsers into buyers.
