WHAT MOVES THE PRICE
What actually moves the price
Four things decide where you land, and the one most people worry about is the least expensive of them.
How many pages you need
This matters least of the four, which surprises people. Pages are the cheapest thing to add to a build.
Whether you sell online
This is the real jump. A store carries payments, shipping rules, inventory and PCI compliance, none of which a brochure site needs. It is why Storefront starts where Pro does but climbs faster as the catalogue grows.
Whether SEO runs every month
A site that is never optimized after launch is a brochure. Pro and the store plans include keyword work, on-page SEO and content every month, which is ongoing labor rather than a one-time build cost.
Who writes the words and takes the photos
If you supply copy and images, the build moves faster. If we produce them, that is real hours. This is the line item most quotes hide until halfway through.
QUESTIONS
Website cost questions
Is the number a quote or an estimate?
An estimate. It is built from the prices we actually charge, so it will be close, but a firm quote needs a look at your current site and what you already have.
What does it cost per month?
Websites run from $399 a month for a custom build to $499 for unlimited pages with SEO included. Stores run from $499 to $1,299 a month depending on how many products you sell. Every plan has a one-time setup fee of $299 or $499.
Is it cheaper to pay for the year?
Yes. Paying annually costs 20 percent less than twelve monthly payments. A Build plan is $399 a month, or $3,830 for the year.
Is hosting included?
Yes. Hosting, SSL and maintenance are included in every plan, and store plans include PCI compliance as well. There is no separate hosting invoice.
How long does a site take to build?
Most websites launch in about 7 days. A larger store with a full catalogue or a migration off another platform can run longer.
Can I buy the site outright instead of paying monthly?
Yes, you can buy your website out and own it. The price depends on the size of the project, so it is quoted per site rather than published as a fixed number.
What is the difference between Build and Pro?
Build is a custom site of up to ten pages with the SEO foundations in place. Pro removes the page limit and adds SEO as an ongoing service: keyword research, monthly on-page work and Google Business Profile optimization. Pro is for a site meant to grow traffic, Build is for a site meant to look right and convert.
Can we not just use AI to do this ourselves?
You can, and you will get something that works and looks like everyone else's. AI does not know your customers, your market, or why people pick you over the business down the street. We use the same AI tools, and they help us build faster. What they cannot do is make the calls that decide whether a site brings in business: who it is for, what makes someone pick up the phone, what to say first and what to leave out. That judgment comes from building and running sites for real businesses, and it is what you pay Rankwyre for.
