"How much does a website cost?" is the first question we get. The correct answer is: it depends. A website isn't an off-the-shelf product, it's a project tailored to your goals. Below you'll find, transparently, what the price depends on and what ranges to expect in 2026.
Why the price varies so much
Two sites that "look the same" can have completely different costs, depending on:
- Complexity and features — a presentation site is different from an online store with payments or an app with user accounts.
- Design — an adapted template vs. a custom, conversion-oriented design.
- Content — do you already have copy and photos, or do they need to be created?
- Integrations — payments, couriers, CRM, invoicing, ERP, external APIs.
- SEO and performance — a technically optimized site takes more work, but brings customers.
Ballpark price ranges
These are real starting benchmarks, useful for setting your budget. The final quote is set after we understand the project.
Presentation site / landing page — from ~2,500 RON
Ideal for services, company presentation or campaigns. Includes responsive design, a conversion-oriented structure, basic SEO and analytics. See also our packages.
Web apps & custom systems — from ~5,000 RON
CRMs, dashboards, platforms with authentication, member areas, automations. Here the price depends a lot on business logic and integrations — see what the backend and database side looks like.
Online store (e-commerce) — from ~7,500 RON
Catalog, cart, online payments, stock management, orders, courier integration and reports. The cost grows with the number of products and the automations you want.
What any serious project should include
Beware of very cheap offers that "forget" essential things. A professional site includes:
- Responsive design (looks good on phones, not just desktop);
- Good speed and technical optimization (see Core Web Vitals);
- Basic technical SEO and a correct structure for Google;
- Security (HTTPS, protections) and a GDPR-compliant cookies module;
- Analytics and tracking, so you know what works.
Recurring costs (monthly/annual)
Besides building the site, keep in mind:
- Hosting & domain — from ~500 RON/month for performant solutions with backup;
- Maintenance — updates, security, minor changes;
- SEO & marketing — from ~1,500 RON/month if you want to grow steadily in Google.
- Presentation/landing: from ~2,500 RON. Web apps: from ~5,000 RON. E-commerce: from ~7,500 RON.
- The price depends on features, design, content and integrations.
- A serious project includes responsive design, speed, SEO, security and analytics.
- Budget for recurring costs too: hosting, maintenance, SEO/marketing.
How to choose well
Don't choose on price alone. Ask what's included, who owns the code and the domain, what maintenance looks like and what results the project targets. A more expensive site that brings customers is cheaper than a cheap one that sells nothing. If you also want to understand the technical side, read about the tech stack we build with.
