What should a small business website actually cost?
Website pricing is genuinely confusing, because the same three words cover a ten-dollar-a-month template and a twenty-thousand-dollar agency build. The right number for a small business sits in between, and the thing that matters most is not the sticker price but what you own at the end.
The two ends, and the trap
The cheap end is a rented template: low monthly cost, but you never own it and it looks like everyone else's. The expensive end is a full agency: excellent, but priced for businesses far bigger than a local operator needs. The trap is paying rent forever for something you could own outright for a fair one-off price.
What you should be paying for
A bespoke, fast, mobile-first site that you own outright, built to bring in work, delivered in a sensible timeframe, at a price that respects the size of your business. No lock-in and no monthly rent for the privilege of staying online.
