Let’s get straight to the point: there is no clear answer to this question. The costs of having a professional website made vary from a few thousand to tens of thousands of euros. This is because the quality of the (custom) web design and the technology behind the website determine the costs. However, you can expect a lower limit of around €3,000.
But what can you expect for that amount? What budget is usually sufficient? What distinguishes a professional website from a budget website? And how do you ensure that you earn back the investment in the website? Read on and you will know.
What can you expect from a professional website?
As mentioned, a professional website costs at least €3,000. For this you can expect the following:
2 to 3 concept designs for the website design.
The elaboration of the chosen design and the technical functionalization of the website, including responsive design, so that the website also works well on mobile devices and the most common browsers.
Social media integration.
5-10 pages, including a homepage, contact page and an about us page.
Call-to-actions, such as doorbells and contact forms.
An SSL certificate (https).
Links to static programs, such as Google Analytics and Google Search Console.
Text, images and videos can easily be added to the website.
The website must be registered with Google as soon as it goes online, so that your target group can actually find you.
In addition to the above points, it is customary that a consultation is scheduled before the delivery of the website, in which you are explained how to manage the website yourself. You also usually receive a manual upon delivery so that you can read what was discussed.
Advanced features, such as a telegram database users list customer portal or ordering and payment options, are often offered at an additional cost. All in all, you can assume that for most companies a budget of between €3,000 and €10,000 is sufficient to have a website built that is technically well-designed and has an effective design.
How does a professional website differ from a budget website?

How do you ensure that you earn back the investment in your website?
