What affects the cost of a trade website?

The short answer

The cost of a trade website mainly depends on how many pages and services it covers, whether you need extras like online booking or photo uploads, how much help you need with words and photos, and whether you want ongoing hosting and care. Every project is quoted on its own scope, so you only pay for what you need.

Number of pages and services

A focused site covering a single trade and a handful of services is quicker to build than one with separate pages for many services and areas. More pages can help you show up in more searches, so it is a balance worth talking through.

Features you need

Some features add time to a build:

  • Booking or appointment requests
  • Photo uploads on quote forms
  • Galleries you can update yourself
  • Linking to reviews from other platforms

Words and photos

If you already have good photos and know what you want to say, things move faster. If you need help writing the content or organising photos, we can do that too.

Hosting and looking after it

A website needs hosting, a domain name and occasional updates. We can handle all of it, so you have one point of contact and nothing to manage yourself.

Questions

Common questions

Why do you not show prices on your website?

Because every trade business needs something slightly different. We would rather understand what you need and give you a clear, fixed quote than show a number that does not fit your job.

How can I get an idea of cost for my business?

Use our website planner to set out what you need in a few minutes, or book a short discovery call. Either way you get a clear quote with no obligation.
