What is included
What does £200 to £500 cover?
That is the typical range for a standard small business website from ZTech — a brochure-style site that brings enquiries. The exact figure inside that range depends on pages and features, and it is fixed in your proposal before work starts.
Mobile-first design
Built to look right and load fast on a phone first, then on desktop. Tested before launch.
Contact and enquiries
Contact forms, click-to-call, WhatsApp and maps where they help — set up so enquiries reach you.
Basic SEO setup
Clear page titles, descriptions and Search Console setup, so Google can find and show your site.
The difference
Why so much less than a UK agency?
UK agencies typically quote £2,000 to £6,000 or more for the same kind of site, according to published 2026 guides. ZTech is a fully virtual, remote team with no UK office and none of its overheads — so the same professional build costs less. You get the same fixed quote, the same proposal within 2 days, and the same weekly updates, without paying for an office you will never visit.
E-commerce stores and custom builds are priced on proposal only — there is no single range for them, because the scope decides the price. Your proposal will still be fixed before work starts.
What affects the price
What drives the price up or down
Number of pages
More pages means more design, copy and testing. A 5-page site and a 20-page site are different jobs.
Template or custom design
A template is faster and cheaper. A custom design takes longer and costs more, but it is built around your business.
Copy and photos
If you supply finished copy and photos, the price drops. If we write and source them, that is part of the quote.
E-commerce
Products, variants, payment, delivery rules and stock all add scope — priced on proposal.
Integrations
Booking systems, CRMs, email tools and payment gateways each need setup and testing.
SEO and speed setup
Basic on-page SEO, fast mobile loading and Search Console setup are part of a professional build, not an afterthought.
The full picture
One-off cost vs ongoing cost
One-off (the build)
Design, development, copy, images, testing and launch. For a standard small business website, typically £200 to £500, fixed in your proposal.
Ongoing (after launch)
Domain, hosting, maintenance, updates and security. These are quoted in your proposal too, month to month with no long contracts — so you know the running cost before you commit.
Before you commit
What to check before you pay
Ask any agency these questions before you pay.
- Is the quote fixed, or hourly with no cap?
- Exactly what is included — pages, copy, photos, forms, SEO setup?
- Who owns the website and the domain — you, or the agency?
- Is it fast on mobile, and is that tested before launch?
- What support do you get after launch, and for how long?
- Is there a long contract, or can you leave month to month?
Fixed pricing
How ZTech prices a website
We do not publish a fixed price list, because no two websites are the same size. Here is how it works instead: start with a free website audit and a free 30-minute consultation, then get a clear proposal with fixed pricing within 2 days. A standard small business website typically lands at £200 to £500. Month to month, no long contracts, with weekly updates in plain English. The proposal lists every page and feature, so you know exactly what you are paying for before any work starts.
FAQs
Frequently asked questions
How long does a small business website take to build?
A simple brochure site usually takes 4 to 6 weeks from brief to launch. A small shop takes 8 to 14 weeks. The exact time depends on how quickly copy and photos are ready.
Do I need e-commerce, or is a brochure site enough?
If you take orders or payments online, you need e-commerce. If your website's job is to bring enquiries — calls, forms, bookings — a brochure site with clear contact options is usually enough.
Can I update the website myself?
Yes. A professional build includes a content management system, so you can change text, photos and pages yourself. We show you how at handover.
What if I already have a website?
Start with the free website audit. It shows what is working, what is slow or broken, and whether a redesign or a few fixes is the better spend.
Why are your prices lower than a UK agency?
ZTech is a fully virtual, remote team with no UK office overheads. That keeps the cost down without cutting the build — the same fixed quote, proposal within 2 days, and weekly updates.
