The cost of building a website can vary widely based on several key factors, including the platform you choose, the complexity of the design, any additional functionalities, and whether you hire a professional web developer. On average, a one-page website can range from $500 to $5,000, depending on these elements.

How does this compare to other projects?

Think of website design like building a house or upgrading a kitchen. Just like a house, the final cost depends on how much customisation and functionality you need. A simple one-room cabin or a fully customised, multi-story home will have very different price tags - similarly, the more complex your website needs to be, the more you’ll likely invest. 

What should I consider before building a website?

We’ll need to understand your goals in detail: What do you want to achieve with your website? Who are your competitors, and what do their websites look like? What functionality would you like to be included? Are you selling items through your website? Does your site need to integrate with internal systems or display information from external APIs? These details help us determine the right approach and find a balance between your budget and your needs.

What happens if I try to build a website myself?

Many clients start by using online website-building tools or even AI, only to get frustrated when the site doesn’t perform as expected, especially across different devices. Starting your website journey with WebShed can save you time, stress, and the headache of dealing with a site that doesn’t meet your needs. It actually may save you money in the long run.
