Price follows uncertainty and responsibility
A simple brochure site and a multilingual catalogue with migration, integrations and custom workflows are not comparable just because both have ten pages.
Ask every quote to make these visible
Compare the work and obligations, not only the total.
- Discovery and content planning
- Number of unique page types
- Original design or theme adaptation
- Content writing and migration
- CMS, commerce and integrations
- Testing, training and support
- Hosting, licences and recurring costs
Compare website design packages by deliverables
A package name only helps when its deliverables are explicit. Check the number of unique page types, content responsibility, design route, CMS access, integrations, revision process, testing, hosting, licences, ownership and post-launch support before comparing prices.
The clearest next step
Prepare goals, audiences, required functionality, existing content, deadline constraints and who will approve the work. A short discovery call can then identify the right level of scope.
