Freelance website design & development pricing
Hey guys,
I’ve been building sites for friends/family and am starting to take on real clients. I’m trying to get a realistic sense of pricing from people actually doing this work.
Current Project:
Local coffee shop w highly visual branding
• Standard pages + menu
• Online ordering w/ customization
• Integration w current payment system (square)
Context:
• I build custom (no template builders)
• I Include standard SEO / technical setup (performance, sitemap, schema)
Questions:
• What would you realistically charge for this?
• How much does custom vs builder actually impact pricing, and do clients care?
• What’s your typical range for a basic brochure site vs added features (ordering, booking, forms, portals)?
• Maintenance & hosting fees?
Not trying to undercut, just want to land in a fair range while I build experience. Appreciate any real numbers/examples.
Thanks in advanced 🙏🏻
