How much does
a website cost?
How much does a website cost? A 5–10 page business brochure website built on WordPress starts at around €1,500. From there the price grows with custom design, languages, features and the content to be produced. This guide explains how we get to the figure.
In short
How much does a website cost? From around €1,500 for a well-made brochure site.
That is the starting figure for a 5–10 page business website built with WordPress on a quality theme adapted to your brand: roughly 20–30 hours of work for setup, pages, optimisation and going live.
Every project is different, though. If you want a custom-designed layout, animations, several languages, a product catalogue or a link to your management software, the hours go up, and so does the price. That is why, before quoting, we need to understand what the website has to do for your business.
How much a website costs therefore depends on your choices: we show them one by one in the quote, so you can see where to invest and where to save.
Be wary of much lower offers: they often leave out copywriting, SEO, accessibility, privacy and cookie compliance, or leave you on your own the day after launch.
What it depends on
How much does a website cost:
what pushes the price up.
01
Design: theme or custom
A quality theme adapted to your brand is the fastest route. A layout designed from scratch takes design work, prototypes and more development hours, but gives you a unique website.
02
Number of pages and languages
Each page has to be designed, written and optimised; each language adds translation, checks and a version to maintain over time.
03
Content
Copy written by a copywriter, professional photos and videos, product sheets: if we produce them, they are in the quote. If you supply them, the cost goes down.
04
Features
Advanced contact forms, private areas, quote tools, configurators, bookings, filterable catalogues: each feature has its own development time.
05
Integrations
Connecting the website to management software, CRM, newsletter tools or price lists needs analysis and testing. It is often the item that varies most between projects.
06
SEO, accessibility and compliance
Structured data, speed, WCAG accessibility, privacy and cookie compliance: always included with us, but worth checking in every quote.
What is included
How much does a website built by us cost? The price covers everything you need to get started.
We use WordPress, the most widely used website platform in the world: it is open source and it stays yours. Initial analysis, page structure, design adapted to your brand, responsive development for smartphones and tablets, basic SEO, sitemap and structured data, privacy and cookie policy with consent banner, launch and a training session to update the content yourself.
On request we add copywriting, photos, videos, translations and campaigns, always listed as separate items so you know what you are paying for. See how we work on Websites, E-commerce & Apps.
After launch
A website also has yearly costs: plan for them from the start.
Domain, hosting and SSL certificate are recurring, usually modest costs. On top of these comes maintenance: WordPress and plugin updates, backups, security checks and small changes.
A website that is not updated slows down, loses rankings and becomes vulnerable. That is why we offer support with guaranteed response times, instead of stepping in only when something breaks.
Funding
In Italy the cost of a website can be reduced with grants and vouchers.
Regions, chambers of commerce and ministries regularly publish calls that cover part of the cost of websites, e-commerce and software for businesses. We help you find a suitable call and prepare an eligible project: see Grants and incentives.

How much does a simple website cost?
A 5–10 page brochure website on WordPress, with a quality theme adapted to your brand, starts at around €1,500. That is roughly 20–30 hours of work.
How much does a professional website with custom design cost?
It depends on how complex the layout is and how many pages there are: a design created from scratch takes more design and development hours. We send a detailed quote after a first meeting.
Are there yearly costs for a website?
Yes: domain, hosting and SSL certificate, plus maintenance (updates, backups and security). We list them separately in the quote.
How long does it take to build a website?
A brochure website usually takes a few weeks, depending also on how quickly copy and images are ready. Custom design or special features take longer.
Do you work outside Bergamo?
Yes. We have offices in Telgate (Bergamo) and Monastier di Treviso and work with companies across northern Italy and abroad, meeting by video call or in person.
