How Much Should a Website Cost in the UK in 2025?
If you’ve been wondering, “How much should I pay for a new website?” — you’re not alone. In 2025, website pricing in the UK is still all over the map. Some designers charge £500, others ask for £10,000+. So what’s a fair price, and what should you expect to get for your money?
Let’s break it down.
1. Basic Brochure Website: £750 – £2,000
These are perfect for small businesses who need a professional online presence but don’t need fancy features. You’ll usually get:
-
4–6 pages (Home, About, Services, Contact, etc.)
-
Mobile-friendly design
-
Basic SEO setup
-
Contact forms
These are often built on platforms like WordPress, Webflow, or even Wix (if budgets are tight).
2. Custom Small Business Website: £2,000 – £5,000
At this price point, you're hiring a proper design agency — like us at Siteo — to create something unique. Expect:
-
Custom design and branding
-
Optimised content structure
-
Integrated analytics
-
SEO foundations
-
Speed-optimised build
-
One-on-one design process
Ideal for growing businesses that want a competitive edge.
3. E-Commerce Site: £3,000 – £10,000+
Selling online? Shopify or WooCommerce sites start at around £3k for a clean build. Higher-end eCommerce projects (with custom design, product filtering, payment integrations, etc.) can run £8k or more.
Be cautious of cheap eCommerce templates — they often miss key features like security, performance optimisation, and conversion UX.
What About Ongoing Costs?
Don’t forget about:
-
Hosting: £10–£40/month
-
Maintenance & updates: £50–£200/month
-
Content/SEO: Ongoing support often brings the best results
