What you actually get at each price point
At $2,750 (Website Only) you get a custom, mobile-first 10-page site on a modern React/Cloudflare stack, starter SEO (titles, meta, schema, sitemap), lead form, click-to-call, and a full year of hosting/SSL. You own the code — full GitHub repo access — and can take it anywhere.
At $5,500 ($597/mo over 12) you get everything in Website Only plus up to 25 pages, advanced on-page SEO, speed optimization, 1 year of website maintenance, and a named dedicated webmaster handling 2–3 hours of edits per month with same-day turnaround.
At $2,497/mo ($27,500 one-time) you add a full year of SEO, social media, AI search optimization, reputation management, and conversion-rate optimization on top of a 50-page authority build. This is the long-term growth path.
What inflates the price
Custom integrations (CRM sync, booking platforms, payment processors) and e-commerce add the most. Page count matters less than depth — a 30-page site with templated city pages costs less than a 10-page site with custom illustration and original photography.
Stock photography vs. custom photography is the other major variable. Hiring a photographer for a half-day shoot adds $800–$1,500 but typically doubles conversion on hero sections.
Follow-up questions
Why do some agencies quote $25,000+ for a small business site?
Custom illustration, original photography, brand strategy, advanced animation, and complex CMS architecture can justify it. For most Colorado small businesses, that scope is overkill. Be sure you're paying for things customers will notice.
Is a template site cheaper than custom?
Initially yes, long-term often no. Template platforms like WordPress need security updates, plugin maintenance, and break more often. A modern custom React-based site costs more upfront but less to maintain over 3+ years.
Do I own my website after it's built?
You should — and we make sure of it. You own your domain, hosting account, content, and code. If your agency holds the domain or refuses to hand over assets, that's a major red flag.
How long does a website take to build?
4–8 weeks is normal for a 10-page site. Faster than 3 weeks usually means corners are being cut. Slower than 12 weeks usually means the project lacks a clear scope.
What about ongoing costs?
Plan on $50–$300/mo for hosting, security monitoring, backups, and small content updates. Sites that need active SEO or content marketing add to that.
