How Much Should a Website Cost?

One of the first questions we hear from businesses is:
“How much does a website cost?”

The answer depends on what you want your website to do. A simple one-page landing site will cost much less than a full eCommerce platform or custom-built enterprise site.

At The ADAMCO, we believe every business deserves clarity and transparency — no hidden charges, no unnecessary upselling. Below, we’ve outlined everything you need to know about website design and development costs in Australia, so you can plan with confidence.

What Determines Website Cost?

  • Website Type & Goals
    The purpose of your website — whether it’s informational, eCommerce, or lead-generating — determines scope and pricing.

  • Design Complexity
    Custom visuals, animations, and UX design add creative value (and time).

  • Functionality & Features
    Integrations such as booking systems, membership portals, or CRMs impact cost.

  • Content Creation
    Professional photography, copywriting, and SEO-ready content can be included or handled by your team.

  • Platform & Hosting
    WordPress, Shopify, or fully custom-coded websites each have different hosting and maintenance requirements.
