Project scope summary

    💡 Pro tip: Get 3 quotes before hiring. Quotes within ±20% of this estimate are in a healthy range — much higher usually means scope padding, much lower often means corners cut.

    This is an instant estimate. Your exact price is confirmed after a free consultation.

    No spam. We use this only to send your estimate and follow up about your project.

    What this estimate includes

    • Base build cost by website type
    • Build approach (DIY → agency) multiplier
    • Page-count cost above the base scope
    • Each selected feature as a scope line item
    • CMS / self-editing setup
    • Design tier (template → bespoke)
    • Indicative delivery timeline

    What is not included

    • Domain registration (~$10–$15/year)

    Methodology

    Estimates are based on 2026 US market rates. Base costs reflect median project quotes for each website type; build-approach multipliers account for the typical overhead difference between DIY, freelancers, and agencies; and each selected feature uses the standard market range as a standalone scope item. The timeline is derived from the total build value. Expect ±25% variance based on your specific requirements and chosen provider — for a fixed figure, book a free consultation.
