The cost of a company website can vary greatly, depending on the scope, complexity, and requirements. The investment depends on several factors:
1. Type of website:
- Simple website: A static page with basic information (e.g. About us, Services, Contact). Cost: approximately 1,000-5,000 €.
- Dynamic website: With regularly updated content, blog, or small interactive features. Cost: approximately 5,000-15,000 €.
- E-commerce website: For selling products or services. Cost: approximately 10,000-50,000 € or more, depending on the features.
- Individual solutions: Very specific requirements such as complex booking systems, custom tools or a large number of pages can cost 50,000 € or more.
2. Design and functionality:
- Standard templates: Cost-effective, but less individualized. Often suitable for smaller budgets.
- Custom design: Higher price, but unique and better adapted to the brand.
3. Additional cost factors:
- Domain and hosting: Approximately 5-50 € per month, depending on the provider.
- Content creation: Professional texts, images, videos, etc. can incur additional costs of 1,000-10,000 €.
- SEO and marketing: For search engine optimization and long-term online presence: 500-5,000 € per month.
- Maintenance and updates: Ongoing costs for maintaining the site. Mostly 50-500 € per month.
4. Agency vs. Freelancer vs. Construction kit:
- Web construction kit (e.g. Wix, Squarespace): Cheap, often under 1,000 €, but limited flexibility.
- Freelancer: Medium-priced, approximately 1,000-10,000 €.
- Agencies: Higher investment, but comprehensive service, approximately 3,000-100,000 €.
Recommendation:
Set a budget that corresponds to your business goal:
- For small businesses: 3,000-10,000 € are often sufficient.
- For larger companies or those with specific requirements: Plan at least 10,000-50,000 €.
