How much does a website cost in the UK?

Every project is scoped carefully based on your business goals, required functionality and long-term growth plans.

Most of our projects fall within the following ranges:

  • Landing Page Websites – From £1,200
  • Foundation Websites (5 pages) – From £2,500
  • Growth Websites (8–10 pages + CMS) – From £3,750
  • Enterprise Website (larger / multi-structure builds) – From £5,500+

Rather than charging “per page”, we design structured platforms that are built to generate enquiries, support SEO and grow with your business.

For example, a CMS template (which may power hundreds of blog or service pages) is designed as part of the overall system — not priced as individual pages.

Each project includes essential pages such as legal documents, thank you pages and 404 pages where required.

A small business website in the UK typically costs between £1,500 and £10,000, depending on the number of pages, design complexity, and features such as CMS, booking systems, or e-commerce.

At Dove Design Ltd, most business websites fall between £2,500 and £5,500, depending on the scope of the project.
