A corporate website is not priced by page count alone. Design originality, content preparation, technical requirements and post-launch support define the real workload. A reliable quote starts with a written scope.
Template or custom design?
A ready-made theme can speed up the start but may limit brand expression, user flows and performance. Custom design requires more research and production because every screen is planned around the brand and audience.
Content and multiple languages
Client-supplied text is different from professional content production. Multilingual work also requires menus, URLs, metadata and hreflang handling for every language.
Features and integrations
Quote forms, appointments, memberships, payments, CRM connections, custom calculations and admin panels add development and testing time. Every integration also needs failure handling and security controls.
SEO, performance and accessibility
Technical SEO, speed, structured data and accessibility are not optional decoration. They are more effective and less expensive when planned from the foundation.
Maintenance and ownership
Domain, hosting, backups, updates and support terms should be explicit. Source code, licenses and administrative access must also be clarified before delivery.
