Website Pricing: Value, Not Just Cost

We’re not the cheapest. We’re not the most expensive. We’re the most invested in your success. Discover why our pricing reflects real value, not just a number.

Cheap Templates vs. Custom Websites

Not all websites are created equal. Here’s why a custom site is a strategic investment, not just an expense.

Initial Price
Template: £50–£3,000
Custom: £900–£5,000+
Long-Term Cost
Template: Often higher (hidden costs, rebuilds, plugins)
Custom: Lower (built to last, grows with you, fewer surprises)
Brand Identity
Template: Generic, hard to stand out
Custom: Unique, tailored to your business
Performance
Template: Often slow, bloated code
Custom: Fast, clean, optimised for your needs
SEO & Accessibility
Template: Basic, sometimes limited
Custom: Built-in best practices, WCAG 2.1 AA
Security
Template: Vulnerable, needs constant updates
Custom: Custom security, fewer vulnerabilities
Scalability
Template: Hard to scale, may need a rebuild
Custom: Easy to grow with your business

Myth vs. Reality

Let’s clear up some common misconceptions about website pricing and value.

Myth
“A website should be cheap and quick.”
Reality
“A quality website is a long-term investment, like a sofa or a home.”
Myth
“£250 should cover everything.”
Reality
“At £30/hr, that’s just 8 hours. That’s barely enough for the basics, let alone a site that grows your business.”
Myth
“Websites are just drag-and-drop.”
Reality
“Real websites require strategy, content, design, SEO, and technical expertise.”

A Real-World Perspective

Why does a quality website cost what it does? Here’s a practical way to think about it:

The Sofa Test

Would you expect a £250 sofa to last 6 years of daily use? Probably not. You want something comfortable, reliable, and built to last. A website is the same: it’s a long-term investment in your business and your brand.

The 8-Hour Reality

Can a website that represents your business for years, with content, images, SEO, and technical polish, really be built in a single day? A well-built site takes time, care, and expertise to get right.

Tighter than a Yorkshireman’s wallet when it comes to waste, but we know good websites are worth it.
