- How much does a website design cost?
As a marketing agency, we understand that every website project is unique and requires careful consideration of various factors. Therefore, providing an exact cost without understanding your specific requirements and objectives would be challenging. However, we can give you an overview of the factors that influence website costs.
Website Complexity: The complexity of your website plays a significant role in determining the cost. Factors such as the number of pages, unique design elements, custom functionality, e-commerce integration, and database requirements can all impact the overall cost.
Design and Customization: The level of design customization and branding requirements will affect the cost. If you have specific design preferences, a unique layout, or require extensive customization to match your brand identity, it may involve additional design and development time, which can increase the cost.
Content Management System (CMS): The choice of CMS can affect the cost. WordPress and Shopify are popular options, but if you require a more complex or specialized CMS, it may involve additional development time and costs.
E-commerce Functionality: If you plan to sell products or services online, the complexity of your e-commerce requirements will impact the cost. Features such as product catalogs, shopping carts, payment gateways, inventory management, and order processing systems can increase the development effort and overall cost.
Responsiveness and Mobile Optimization: Ensuring your website is mobile-friendly and responsive across different devices is crucial. The cost may increase if your website requires extensive optimization and testing for various screen sizes and resolutions.
Integration and Third-Party Services: If you need integration with third-party services like payment gateways, CRM systems, marketing automation tools, or APIs, it can add to the development cost.
Content Creation and Migration: If you require assistance with content creation, copywriting, or migrating content from an existing website, it may incur additional costs depending on the amount of content and complexity involved.
Ongoing Maintenance and Support: Consider ongoing support, maintenance, and updates for your website.
It’s important to note that we believe in providing transparent and customized pricing based on your specific needs.

Our goal is to deliver a high-quality website that aligns with your objectives, budget, and timeline.

- Do I have to pay subscription fees for Shopify or Wordpress?
As a marketing agency, it’s important to clarify the subscription fees associated with Shopify and WordPress.
For Shopify:
Yes, Shopify is a hosted e-commerce platform that requires a monthly subscription fee to use its services. The cost of the subscription depends on the plan you choose, ranging from basic to advanced options. These plans include essential features like website hosting, security, customer support, and access to various e-commerce functionalities. The subscription fees are paid directly to Shopify and are separate from any fees you may incur for design and development services provided by our agency.For WordPress:
WordPress, on the other hand, is an open-source content management system (CMS) that is free to use. However, there are some associated costs you should be aware of. While the WordPress software itself is free, you will need to secure web hosting and a domain name to make your website accessible online. These services are typically offered by third-party hosting providers and come with their own pricing structure. Additionally, if you choose to use premium integrations to expand your functionalities, there may be costs associated with those as well.At our digital marketing agency, we can guide you through the process of selecting the right hosting provider, help you understand the associated costs, and recommend integrations that align with your goals and budget.
It’s essential to consider these subscription fees and costs while budgeting for your website project. During our project discovery, we can discuss the specific requirements of your project and provide a detailed breakdown of all potential costs, including the Shopify or WordPress subscription fees, design and development services, hosting, and any additional third-party integrations you may need.
Our goal is to provide you with transparent pricing and help you make informed decisions about the best options for your website within your budget constraints.
