How much does it cost
Website development price: from $8,970.
When estimating the cost, we base our approach on a clear understanding of your project goals and collaboration expectations. Tell us more about your business — we’ll offer a consultation and help you find the right solution.
We are asked:
-
What types of websites do you develop?
Any type. This includes web services, portals, social networks, online stores, internal CRMs, landing pages, and promo websites.
-
Which CMS platforms do you use?
Primarily 1C-Bitrix. For complex and high-load projects, we offer development using frameworks like Laravel and Yii 2.0.
-
What does the cost of website development depend on?
Website development costs are calculated using a simple formula: estimate = price per 1 hour × number of hours. Therefore, in website development, the cost directly depends on the complexity. Projects on ready-made solutions cost less than projects with an individual design. To create a custom design and then technically implement it, we develop user interfaces, create mockups, and code each page for different devices — all of which takes significantly more time.
-
Can the website development process be broken down into stages?
Yes, that’s a mandatory procedure. We always start with the Planning stage, where we clarify and document the requirements in a technical brief. Then we move on to design, followed by layout, programming, testing, and content integration. Payment is made in accordance with these stages.
-
How long does it take to get a project estimate?
Usually, the estimate takes no more than 2–3 business days. The final estimate is confirmed after the technical brief is prepared and the Planning stage is completed.
-
Do you work with government institutions?
Yes, we develop websites and web services of any complexity for government and municipal organizations using the 1C-Bitrix platform. All regulatory requirements are strictly followed.
