Pricing and scope guide
What does a website cost in New Zealand?
A useful price depends on what the website must do, how much content and data is involved, and the risk carried by integrations or migration.
01
Common website types
The category is only a starting point; two websites with the same page count can involve very different work.
Ecommerce website
Products, payments, shipping, integrations and store operations.
Redesign or migration
Existing content, URLs, platform constraints and release risk.
02
The main cost factors
Cost becomes clearer when the work is described in practical units.
- 01
Page types and content
Unique layouts, writing, migration and approval rounds all affect effort.
- 02
Functionality and integrations
Forms, booking, ecommerce, feeds and external systems need planning and testing.
- 03
Design and brand requirements
Custom components and unresolved brand assets require more work than a defined system.
- 04
Migration risk
Redirects, data, SEO preservation and cutover controls add necessary scope.
03
Ongoing costs
A website also has operating costs that should be considered separately from the initial build.
- Domain and hosting
- Recurring infrastructure and registration costs vary by provider and setup.
- Maintenance and support
- Updates, fixes and improvement work depend on the agreed arrangement.
- Third-party services
- Plugins, apps, payment fees, email, feeds and other services may have their own charges.
04
Why the cheapest quote can cost more
A lower initial figure may omit content, migration, testing, accessibility or operational needs.
Unclear inclusions
Missing detail makes it difficult to compare proposals or understand later changes.
Fragile shortcuts
Unsupported components and excessive dependencies can increase maintenance risk.
Unplanned migration
Losing useful pages or data can create avoidable recovery work.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Why are fixed prices not shown here?
Website scope varies with content, functionality, integrations and migration risk. A1 confirms a useful proposal after those requirements and assumptions are understood.
Can I get a fixed quote?
A1 can confirm the appropriate proposal format after the requirements, assumptions and exclusions are understood.
Is hosting included in a website build?
Not automatically. Hosting and other recurring services should be listed separately unless the proposal states otherwise.
