About the Website Cost Calculator

How much does a small business website cost in 2026?

A professionally designed small business website typically costs between $1,500 and $5,000. The main variables are number of pages, copywriting, design level, and SEO requirements. Use the calculator above for a specific estimate.

Are there ongoing costs?

Yes. Expect $10–30/month for managed WordPress hosting, $10–20/year for domain, and optionally $99–$199/month for a maintenance plan. Read our guide on website redesign if your current site is underperforming.

Is a cheaper website worth it?

A $500 website generating zero enquiries costs more than a $3,000 site generating five per month. Return on investment matters more than upfront cost. Get a free quote from Aesthetic Web Studio.

Why This Matters

Website pricing is one of the most common questions small business owners search for, and vague "it depends" answers do not help anyone budget. This calculator gives an instant, transparent estimate based on the features you actually need, so you can plan before you talk to an agency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the estimate from this calculator a binding quote?

No, it is a directional estimate based on typical project scope. A final quote depends on your specific requirements, content readiness and design complexity, which we confirm in a free consultation.

What is included in a typical small business website budget?

Most estimates cover design, development, basic SEO setup, and mobile responsiveness. Ongoing costs like hosting, maintenance and content updates are usually separate and billed monthly or annually.

Why do website costs vary so much between agencies?

Differences usually come down to scope (template vs. custom design), the number of pages and features, ongoing support included, and the experience level of the team. Two "website" quotes can cover very different amounts of work.
