Development cost calculator: sites, stores, systems & apps
Choose a project type, answer a few questions tailored to it, and get an investment range with every component itemised. The final price is set after a specification call.
How does the website development calculator work, and what makes up the range?
The calculator works in two steps. First you choose the project type, for example a brand site, store, system, app or automations, then you answer questions adapted to that choice. Each answer adds a component with a clear cost, so the final range breaks down into parts you can understand and change.
The calculator is especially useful at the stage of deliberation. You can compare directions, for example a custom WordPress theme against a Laravel site, and see how the difference in architecture changes the range. It helps set an initial budget, decide whether to begin with a limited phase, and check which examples in the portfolio are close to your scope.
At the end you get the one-time cost and monthly costs separately, plus a summary of every choice that you can send us on WhatsApp. All estimates are before VAT. This turns the estimate into the basis for a conversation rather than an isolated number with no explanation behind it.
Which factors affect the cost of building a website or system?
After the specification call you receive a final proposal. The service pages explain in detail what is included in each type: website building, system development and WordPress plugins. To choose between an off-the-shelf system and custom development, read the article when a business needs a custom system, and to continue use contact.
Project cost is determined mainly by the scope of work and not by the type of technology alone. That is why the same project type can produce different ranges, and the calculator is meant to give a first order of magnitude. The common factors are:
- The number of pages, templates and specially designed components
- Integrations with external systems, payments and APIs
- The number of user types and permissions in the system
- Multiple languages and special adaptations for the target audience
- The requested schedule and ongoing hosting and maintenance services
