How Much Does a Small Business Website Cost?

The short answer: a professional small business website from Verispace Apex costs between $1,500 and $5,500, flat. The longer answer is about what you are actually buying.

What changes the price

• Page count. Three pages take less design, writing and testing than eight.
• Who writes the words. Copywriting is included in Elevate and Apex Commerce. On Launch you supply the text and we polish it.
• Selling online. A store adds products, payments, shipping, tax and a lot more testing.
• Photos. Custom photography costs more than stock, and it is usually worth it.

What it costs after launch

Plan for a domain (about $15 to $25 a year), hosting, and a little time each month for updates. Our Care Plan bundles hosting help, security, backups and an hour of edits for $89 a month.

How to budget

Pick the smallest package that covers what you need on day one. A tight three-page site that loads fast and answers the phone beats a sprawling site nobody finishes. You can always add pages later.
