Website cost calculator
Answer three questions and see what your website is likely to cost — built yourself, by a freelancer or by an agency.
Your estimate
With a freelancer
$2,500 – $6,000
| Do it yourself (first year) | $300 – $900 |
|---|---|
| Freelancer | $2,500 – $6,000 |
| Agency | $6,000 – $15,000 |
Preliminary ranges in USD for typical US small-business projects. DIY covers builder plan, domain and paid apps for the first year.
How to use your estimate
Treat the range as a budget, not a price. Where a project lands inside it depends mostly on how much content you already have, how many custom features you need and how quickly you need to launch.
- Do it yourself if you have more time than budget and a simple site. You pay for a builder plan, a domain and any paid apps.
- Hire a freelancer for a custom design on a mid-sized budget, when you can manage the project yourself.
- Choose an agency when you need design, development, content and marketing handled by one team, with a fixed timeline.
Before you request quotes, write a short brief: your goals, the pages you need, examples you like and your budget. Every quote will then be for the same scope. Not sure which builder to use? Start with our website builder guides.
