UK website pricing is opaque because most agencies want a call before showing a number. Here are the honest bands, and our free estimator that quotes your specific project in GBP instantly.
The Four Price Bands
DIY builders (£10–£30/month): fine for testing an idea; limiting the moment SEO or custom functionality matters.
Freelancer builds (£300–£1,500): huge quality variance — the portfolio and live client sites are the only evidence that counts.
Small agency builds (£1,000–£5,000): proper multi-page sites with SEO foundations, booking flows, and support. Most established UK small businesses belong here.
Custom platforms (£5,000+): web apps, member systems, complex e-commerce.
What Actually Moves the Price
Page count matters less than functionality: booking systems, payment processing, multi-location structures, and content migration are the real cost drivers. A ten-page brochure site is often cheaper than a four-page site with a booking engine.
"The expensive website is the cheap one that never generates a lead. Price the outcome, not the pixels."
The Questions That Protect You
Who owns the site when we finish? What happens to hosting if we part ways? Is SEO setup included or an upsell? Are revisions capped? A trustworthy answer to all four is worth more than a £500 discount from anyone who dodges them.
