A transparent ballpark using typical US studio ranges - not a quote. Your real number depends on exact scope, integrations, and design.
What goes into a website cost
The first lever is what you're building. A single landing page, a multi-page marketing site, an online store, and a logged-in web app are different amounts of work by an order of magnitude - a store needs a catalog and checkout, a web app needs accounts, custom logic, and a dashboard.
On top of that sits scope and design: more pages mean more design and build, and a fully custom design with motion costs more than dropping content into a template. Finally, features - a CMS, blog, accounts, payments, integrations, multiple languages - are each priced on top because they are real, separate work. The calculator above stacks all of these so the range reflects the actual project, not a flat guess.

Common questions
In the US, a simple landing page typically runs $2,000-$6,000, a custom multi-page marketing site $6,000-$20,000, an online store $10,000-$40,000, and a custom web app or SaaS $25,000 and up. The biggest drivers are how many pages or screens you need, whether the design is templated or fully custom, and the features behind it - a CMS, accounts, payments, integrations. The calculator above stacks those inputs into a transparent range.
Because "a website" can mean a one-page brochure or a logged-in product with billing and an admin panel - those are different amounts of work by an order of magnitude. Page count, design depth, custom functionality, content, and integrations each move the number. A fixed quote replaces the range once the scope is pinned down, which is exactly what the project brief at /start is for.
No - it is a transparent ballpark built from typical US studio ranges, meant to set expectations before you talk to anyone. Your real number depends on the exact scope, your content readiness, the integrations involved, and the design ambition. Share the estimate, then start a brief and we'll come back with a fixed, itemized quote.
Fully custom design (versus a template), custom functionality (accounts, dashboards, search, booking), e-commerce and payments, third-party or API integrations, multilingual content, heavy animation or 3D, and a rushed timeline all push the price up. A larger page or screen count adds up too, since each one is design plus build plus content.
DIY builders (Wix, Squarespace, Shopify themes) are a real fit for simple brochure sites and standard stores on a small budget. A studio build is worth it when you need a distinctive custom design, custom functionality, performance and SEO done properly, or a site that has to scale and integrate with other systems. The calculator is scoped to custom studio work, so its ranges sit above DIY.
A landing page can ship in 1-3 weeks, a custom marketing site in 4-8 weeks, and a web app or store in 2-4 months or more, depending on scope and how fast content and feedback come back. A rushed timeline compresses that but usually costs more, since it needs more people in parallel.
