What a website costs

These are our prices, in full.

Most studios only tell you the price on a call. We would rather you knew before we ever speak, so each price below is the whole price, and what it includes is written underneath it.

Three packages, from £500 to £1,500

Each one includes everything in the one before it. The refresh rebuilds a website you already have. If you do not have one yet, start with website and logo.

How paying works

You pay half when we start and half when the site goes live. That is the whole price.

There are no monthly fees. We put your site on a free hosting plan in your name. Hosting is the service that keeps your site online. Once it is paid for, there is nothing more to pay us.

The one running cost is your domain name, the address of your site, which you renew yourself with the company you bought it from.

If you want changes later, ask us. We tell you the price before we do anything.

We are not VAT registered, so there is no VAT to add. The price you see is the price you pay.

More questions are answered on the FAQ.

How much does a website cost in the UK?

A website of up to about five pages costs £395 to £1,500 from small UK studios that publish their prices. Building one yourself on Squarespace costs £12 to £79 a month, billed annually. Agencies that publish a price charge £3,000 to £10,000. Most studio prices are before VAT.

Who builds itPublished priceAbout the price
Build it yourself£12 to £79 a month, billed annuallyA website builder such as Squarespace includes templates and hosting. You design the site and write the words yourself.
A freelancer£16 to £100 an hourThere is no UK survey of what freelancers charge for a finished website. These are the hourly rates UK web designers list on PeoplePerHour, a website where freelancers advertise their work.
A small studio£395 to £5,000A site of up to about five pages costs £395 to £1,500, and some studios include a logo in the price.
An established agency£3,000 to £10,000Few of the agencies we checked publish a price. The two we found build bespoke sites, made to order.
Our packages£500 to £1,500Up to five pages, nothing to pay us monthly, and no VAT to add.

What it costs to keep running

A .co.uk domain renews at about £13 a year before VAT, or about £15.50 with it.

Seven of the 12 studios we checked also sell hosting, or a care plan to look after the site, at £10 to £99 a month.

What a monthly fee adds up to

Over three years, a monthly fee can cost more than the build. An example, in round numbers:

£600 TO BUILD, PLUS £50 A MONTH FOR 36 MONTHS£2,400

£1,200 TO BUILD, WITH NOTHING MONTHLY£1,200

Sources, checked on 20 October 2026: Squarespace’s UK pricing page, PeoplePerHour, and domain prices at Fasthosts and 123 Reg. Studio and agency figures are the published prices of 12 small studios and 2 established agencies, most of them in the south of England. No survey we found records what UK small businesses pay for a website, and the government’s UK Business Data Survey 2026 does not cover it.

Apps and software

We also design and build apps and software, priced per project. Each product is unique and bespoke, so it is best to discuss this pricing separately.

If one of these fits, the next step is a conversation.
