The price of a website doesn't start with how much it costs, but with how much you lose if you choose badly. Most websites aren't bad because they're ugly, but because they don't bring in clients. And this is the point where the \u201ccheap solution\u201d actually becomes the most expensive decision. In this article I show how much a website realistically costs, what you actually get for your money, and what most people completely overlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Hungary, a proper 5-page website starts at about 300,000 HUF if every important element is included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This usually includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If any of these is missing, it will usually come back to bite you later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In most quotes you see how many pages the website has. In reality this is the least important factor. What really matters is whether there's a well-thought-out structure behind it, who writes the copy and how, how well it's tailored to your customers, and whether the site is technically sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My own experience is that most websites don't go wrong in development, but right at the start, when things aren't properly thought through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most websites today are made by picking a nice template, filling it with some copy, and that's it. At first glance it works, but in reality it wouldn't matter which company's website you were looking at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can't force one template onto every business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A website works if it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is the part most quotes leave out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A cheap website may be finished quickly and look good, but if it doesn't bring in clients, it's worth nothing. The problem isn't the price, it's that there's no thinking behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most websites don't fail because of the design, but because they:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most websites are an introduction page, when really they should be a sales tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I've also written about this separately: Design and copy on their own aren't enough. If tracking isn't set up properly, the site is slow, or the images aren't optimised, you won't see what works and what doesn't.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Related articles: I offer two directions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Basic look:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Premium look:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Important: a website doesn't get better by being prettier, but by working better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Realistically, building a website takes about 1 month. That's because the structure has to be thought through, the copy has to be written, and it has to be developed so that it actually works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Projects that take a few days usually lack exactly this thinking part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why is there such a big difference between prices? Is it worth choosing a cheaper website? Why does a custom website cost more? The price of a website isn't a single number. It depends on how well it's thought through, how well it's tailored to your customers, and how much it helps your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most websites aren't bad. They're just completely pointless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because you don't get the same thing. There's a huge difference between a template site and a well-thought-out website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the short term yes, in the long term usually not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
