Business site base $1,200–$3,000 + 3 extra pages $360–$750 + SEO setup $200–$600 = about $1,750–$4,350. Quote near the top of that range, around $3,550, and don’t go below about $1,600.

Monthly costs after launch.

A website isn’t finished on launch day. Most clients also pay for a care plan that covers plugin and WordPress updates, backups, security and small fixes:
