Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a website cost in the UK?
UK website costs vary widely: a brochure website (5-10 pages) typically costs £2,000-£8,000, an e-commerce site £5,000-£25,000, and custom web applications £15,000-£80,000+. Many agencies also offer monthly maintenance packages from £50-£300/month.
How long does it take to build a website?
A simple brochure website typically takes 4-8 weeks. E-commerce sites usually take 8-16 weeks. Complex custom builds can take 3-6 months or more. The biggest factor in timeline is usually content - having your text, images and brand assets ready speeds things up significantly.
Should I use WordPress or a custom-built website?
WordPress is excellent for content-driven sites, blogs and small-to-medium business websites. Custom builds make more sense when you need specific functionality that CMS plugins cannot provide, or when performance and scalability are critical requirements. A good agency will recommend the right approach for your needs.
Will my new website be SEO-friendly?
Any reputable web design agency should build SEO-friendly websites as standard, including clean URL structures, meta tag management, fast loading speeds, mobile responsiveness and proper heading hierarchy. Ask specifically about their SEO practices during the proposal stage.
