Understanding Web Design Costs
What You Need to Know.

Understanding the differences in costs for web designers
When it comes to web design costs, there are a variety of methods and pricing options available, and the choice you make can significantly impact your overall expenses. Whether you’re looking to hire a web design agency or a freelance web designer, the approach you choose can determine both the quality and cost-effectiveness of your website.
Choosing Between a Web Design Agency and a Freelance Designer
Hiring a freelance web designer can often be a more cost-effective option compared to working with a full-service web design agency. Freelancers typically offer competitive pricing while delivering quality work comparable to larger agencies. Moreover, freelancers can provide a more personalized experience, giving you one-on-one attention that is often difficult to get with larger teams.
Another important factor to consider is ongoing website support. After your website goes live, ongoing maintenance and updates are essential to keep it running smoothly. While some designers who offer hosting services may include support, it’s always a good idea to confirm what level of post-launch assistance is included.
Typical Web Design Costs
Web design costs can vary widely based on the method you choose. According to startup.co.uk, here are some general price ranges for designing and building a website:
- DIY with a website builder: £425
- Hiring a web designer: £4,500, with ongoing costs of around £800 per year (this is typically for agencies)
- DIY with WordPress: £30 to £1,000 per year (depending on themes, plugins, and hosting)
However, these average costs are generally reflective of agency pricing. As a freelance web designer, my typical rates range from £800 to £1,200 for a custom-built website tailored to your needs, rather than using a pre-designed template. My ongoing support costs are about £250 per year, which includes essential updates and maintenance to keep your website running smoothly. Additionally, I offer an easy-to-use web editor that allows you to make simple updates to your website once it’s live.
