Pricing
How much does it cost to have a website built?
We work on an hourly basis at €80 an hour, excluding VAT. A small basic website with information about your business, Google Maps and a contact form takes about 2 hours. For a custom design in your own house style and for a CMS of your own to manage text and images yourself, you get an estimate of the hours up front.
How it works
From first contact to a website that is online.
Introduction
Tell us what you are looking for. You will hear from us within 24 hours.
Design
You see a design first and can suggest changes.
Build
We build your website to measure. You supply the text and photos.
Online
Once you approve the design, the website is usually online within two to four weeks.
Price structure
You pay €80 an hour, excluding VAT, for the hours we spend on your website. The three items are not a sum: the custom design route replaces the basic website. Only the CMS comes on top of that as additional work.
| What you get | Estimated hours, at €80 an hour excluding VAT |
|---|---|
| Small basic website with information about your business, Google Maps and a contact form | about 2 hours |
| Website with a custom design in your own house style | estimate up front |
| Your own CMS to manage text and images yourself | estimate up front |
* Hourly rate €80 an hour, excluding VAT. The hours are an estimate; before we start you get a quote for your situation.
