Prices

Website pricing shaped around the project.

Clear starting prices for different types of website and digital project. Costs rise with scope, content depth, functionality and operational complexity — not with a change in craftsmanship.

We recommend the smallest solution that properly supports the business — not the largest package we can sell.

Project types

Six project shapes. One consistent standard.

These categories describe the likely scope and complexity of the work. They are not quality tiers, technology packages or payment plans.

Landing page

Landing Page

From £399

Focused, fast and built around one clear goal.

A standalone page for one campaign, offer, service, event, product or primary conversion goal.

  • Focused scope and one strong conversion path
  • Responsive, mobile-first production build
  • Appropriate contact or action mechanism
  • Technical SEO baseline
  • Analytics or integrations where needed

Essential website

Essential Website

From £499

A compact, complete website with a smaller scope — not lower craftsmanship.

For a smaller business, professional or service provider whose needs do not justify unnecessary complexity.

  • Concise structure and clear service presentation
  • Business identity and strong contact path
  • Responsive, secure lightweight architecture
  • Technical SEO and social-sharing foundations

Foundation website

Foundation Website

From £599

A stronger presentation of the business, its value and the customer journey.

For richer content, more developed brand communication or a more refined customer journey while remaining lightweight where appropriate.

  • Richer content and visual presentation
  • More detailed service or business narrative
  • Stronger trust and authority signals
  • A more developed conversion journey

Growth website

Growth Website

From £1,495

A larger website for a growing organisation with greater content depth.

For projects requiring substantial structure, multiple service routes, geographic reach or more complex customer decision support.

  • Substantial multi-page structure
  • Service, location or team relationships
  • Richer navigation and customer journeys
  • Larger content models and reusable components

Advanced website

Advanced Website

From £2,495

Advanced capability for requirements beyond the lightweight website model.

For projects that genuinely require managed content, specialised integrations, configurable functionality or more sophisticated workflows.

  • CMS-managed content or Joomla where justified
  • Advanced multilingual or editorial needs
  • Specialised extensions and integrations
  • Greater operational and content complexity

Business systems

Business Systems

From £5,000

Digital systems that go beyond an ordinary business website.

For operational platforms, customer portals, integrations and bespoke tools shaped around real business processes.

  • Customer portals and workflow systems
  • Business automation and integrations
  • Data-driven applications and bespoke tools
  • CRM-connected and operational workflows

All figures are starting prices. Final pricing is confirmed after the requirements and project scope have been agreed.

Right-sized foundations

Complexity has to earn its place.

Not every business needs a CMS or complex platform.

Buildverse uses the simplest safe technology that fully supports the project, then adds complexity only where it delivers real value.

Scope, not craftsmanship

Project type defines the breadth and complexity of the work. Responsive design, sensible security, production QA and maintainable implementation remain part of the Buildverse standard.

Technology follows requirements

Lightweight HTML, PHP and JavaScript are preferred where they fully solve the need. CMS-class architecture is introduced only when publishing, integrations or operational requirements justify it.

Shared standards

Practical advice without unnecessary complexity

Scope and cost

Why does the price change?

A clear scope keeps pricing realistic. The final quotation reflects the work required to produce the right result, not an arbitrary package upgrade.

  • The amount and depth of content
  • The number and complexity of customer journeys
  • Design and brand requirements
  • Publishing and content-management needs
  • Specialist functionality
  • Integrations and automation
  • Multilingual or operational requirements
  • The preparation, migration and support required

After delivery

Care remains a separate decision.

Two fixed-price Care plans for standard websites, both including managed hosting.

The ongoing service is separate from the website build. Choose the level of technical responsibility around the website’s maintenance needs.

Compare Website Care plans

Care & Maintenance Basic

£29.90/month

Managed hosting, SSL / HTTPS, scheduled backups, uptime monitoring, baseline security monitoring and basic technical health oversight for websites with limited ongoing maintenance needs.

Care & Maintenance

£59.90/month

The Basic foundation plus active CMS or application maintenance, controlled updates, post-update checks, regular technical review and technical support and improvement planning where applicable.

Advanced systems

Maintenance is scoped separately for portals, CRMs, data-driven applications and larger operational systems, based on complexity, usage and operational requirements. The two fixed website Care prices do not apply.

Additional website work

New pages, functionality, substantial content editing, redesigns, integrations and bespoke development are scoped separately where required.

Domain and business email

Domain registration and renewal are charged separately because supplier costs vary by extension. Domain connection and DNS configuration can be included in the website setup, and the domain should remain owned or controlled by the client wherever practical.

Business email is available as an optional service, with the appropriate mailbox arrangement agreed around the number of addresses and storage required. Clients may also continue using an existing public or third-party email service.

Commercial components and portability

Where a project requires commercial extensions or services, the quotation will explain how those licences are handled. Buildverse licence keys and vendor accounts are not transferred.

A website backup can be provided if the website moves elsewhere. Deployment, migration work and any replacement third-party licences can be scoped separately.

Pricing questions

Answers before we talk.

Why are prices shown as “From”?

Each figure is a starting price for that project shape. The final quotation depends on the agreed scope, content depth, functionality and implementation requirements.

How do I know which project type fits?

Tell us what the business needs the website or system to achieve. Buildverse will recommend the smallest project type that properly supports those requirements.

Do I need a CMS?

Not necessarily. Buildverse uses the simplest safe technology that fully supports the project. A CMS becomes relevant when ongoing publishing, multilingual content, editorial workflows or other genuine requirements justify it.

Can the website grow later?

Yes. A well-planned foundation can support additional content, journeys and functionality as requirements develop. We will explain where future growth should influence the initial architecture.

Are hosting and Buildverse Care available?

Yes. Care & Maintenance Basic is £29.90/month and Care & Maintenance is £59.90/month for standard websites. Both include managed hosting. Advanced systems require a separately scoped maintenance arrangement.

Who owns the website, domain and content?

Once the agreed project fees have been paid, the completed website belongs to the client. The domain should remain owned or controlled by the client wherever practical, and the client retains ownership of the text, images and materials they supply.

Can the website be moved later?

Yes. A website backup can be provided for the client or a new provider to deploy elsewhere. Migration assistance can be scoped separately, and third-party commercial components may require replacement licences.

How is the final quote determined?

We review the project goals, content, functionality, integrations, delivery requirements and ongoing needs, then confirm the recommended approach and agreed scope in writing.
