It's the question we get most often, and the honest answer is: it depends. That's not a dodge. Two websites that look alike can cost very different amounts, because what changes is underneath: how many sections there are, what each one does and which tools it connects to.
This note explains what sets the price, what our starting prices are, and what to have clear before asking for a quote, from us or from any other studio.
Kodexa's starting prices
These are the starting prices we publish on the site, in US dollars. They are a starting point, not a final price:
- Landing page: from USD 250. A single page designed to turn visits into inquiries.
- Corporate website: from USD 500. Several pages to present the company, its services and contact details.
- Corporate Pro: from USD 900. Adds editable content and a blog, so you can update the site without depending on a developer.
- Custom software: on request, estimated per project. Internal systems, dashboards and integrations, where scope weighs even more.
In every case the final price depends on scope. A starting price tells you where the range begins, not where it ends.
What makes the price go up or down
These five decisions move a quote the most:
- Number of pages and sections. Each page needs design, content and testing. One page is not the same as ten.
- Custom design or template. A design made for your brand and audience takes more work than adapting a generic template. At Kodexa we work with original design, not generic templates.
- Editable content. If you want to edit text, add news or run a blog yourself, the site needs an admin panel and a data structure behind it.
- Integrations. Forms that reach a spreadsheet or a CRM, analytics, campaigns, WhatsApp: every connection is designed, tested and maintained.
- Features of their own. Users with accounts, dashboards or business logic are no longer a website: they are a web application, and they are quoted differently.
What to ask whether it's included
When you compare quotes, ask what each one includes. These items sometimes aren't part of the price and show up later:
- The domain and hosting, which renew periodically and depend on where the site is published.
- Copywriting and image production, if you don't have them yet.
- Scope changes during the project, such as adding a section or an integration after work has started.
- Ongoing maintenance: fixes, improvements and new features once the site is live. That's what an ongoing IT team is for.
In our web development projects, deployment and going live are included, and technical SEO is built in from the start: structure, loading speed and per-page metadata.
How to ask for a quote you can compare
The clearer the request, the tighter the number. Before you write, try to have on hand:
- What the site is for: receiving inquiries, showing your company, organizing your information.
- A list of the sections you imagine, even a provisional one.
- Examples of sites you like and what you like about each.
- Which tools you already use and which ones it should connect to.
- Who will write and maintain the content.
If you don't have all of that, that's fine: defining it with you is part of our process. First we understand the business, then we define goals and scope, and only then is a proposal closed.
How long it takes
Time also depends on scope. A landing page is usually ready in a few weeks. A corporate website with more content can take somewhat longer, especially if it depends on final text and images arriving.
Three typical situations
To get your bearings, these are the most common paths. The figures are starting prices; the final one is set by the project:
- You're just starting and need to be found. A landing page concentrates the message and the contact in a single page. It's the most accessible entry point.
- Your company has several services to explain. A corporate website gives each service its own place and organizes the contact information.
- You want to maintain the content yourself. Corporate Pro adds a panel to edit text and images and a blog to publish news.
Be wary of a number without detail
A quote that only states an amount, without explaining what it includes, is hard to compare and easy to turn into a different amount later. Ask it to detail the pages, the integrations, what stays on your side and what happens if the scope changes. A good quote isn't the cheapest one: it's the one that lets you understand what you'll receive.
