The short answer
A small-business website has two costs: the build (paid once) and the running costs (domain, hosting and upkeep, paid yearly). When you compare quotes, compare what each one includes. A cheap quote that leaves out hosting, the domain, the SSL certificate or changes after launch ends up costing more.
Our price: a custom-coded business website is ₹25,000 one-time, plus GST. That includes the domain, hosting and maintenance for the first year, a mobile-friendly design, basic SEO (titles, descriptions, sitemap, Google-ready structure) and an enquiry form or WhatsApp button. It goes live in 7 days.
What the price should include
- Domain and hosting for at least the first year, registered in your name.
- SSL (the padlock), so browsers do not warn your visitors.
- Mobile layout. Most of your visitors will be on a phone.
- Basic SEO: a proper title and description on every page, a sitemap, and structured data so Google and AI search understand your business.
- A way to contact you that actually reaches you: a form that lands in an inbox you check, or a WhatsApp button.
- Small changes after launch: text, photos, timings and prices.
What makes a website cost more
More pages, online payments or a shop, bookings, several languages, and custom software behind the site (a CRM or client portal). These are quoted separately, so you only pay for what you use.

Questions to ask any web designer
- Who owns the domain, the hosting account and the code when the project ends?
- What exactly happens in year two, and what will it cost?
- How fast does the site load on a phone?
- Where do enquiries go, and how will I know when one comes in?
