How much does a business website cost in 2026?

Pricing is often the first question entrepreneurs ask when considering building a website. And that makes sense — budget is a real constraint. But the answer is never straightforward, because a business website can cost anywhere from 500 EUR to 15,000 EUR depending on your needs.

Factors that influence pricing

Several elements affect the cost of a business website: the number of pages, the level of design required, specific features (contact form, blog, online booking, multilingual support), the type of CMS, and the overall technical complexity.

A 5-page site with a custom design and a contact form won't cost the same as a 15-page multilingual site with an integrated booking system.

Actual price ranges

Pre-made template (500 - 1,500 EUR): You start from an existing template, customized with your colors and content. Quick but generic.

Simple custom website (2,000 - 5,000 EUR): Unique design, 5 to 10 pages, contact form, SEO-optimized. This is the most common choice for SMBs and freelancers.

Advanced custom website (5,000 - 15,000 EUR): Premium design, many pages, advanced features (blog, multilingual, booking, animations). For businesses that want to stand out.
