A website redesign quote is only useful when you know what it covers. Two suppliers can price the same “ten-page website” very differently because one includes copy, integrations and migration while the other expects you to provide them.
At DodaCraft, website work starts from €1,000 for a limited scope. That is my starting price, not a market average or a promise to rebuild any website for that amount. Your written proposal defines the work and price.
What changes the price?
| Part of the work | What to clarify |
|---|---|
| Page design | How many different layouts are needed, not just how many URLs? |
| Content | Who writes, edits, translates and uploads it? |
| Features | Are forms, bookings, payments or a customer login included? |
| Integrations | Which data moves, in which direction, and what happens if it fails? |
| Migration | Who transfers content, maps old URLs and checks redirects? |
| Handover | What training, account access and documentation will you receive? |
Ten pages using one layout may take less work than three pages with different booking or purchasing flows. Several languages also require more than translating headings: forms, messages, metadata and links need review.
Compare the same scope
Send each supplier the same brief. Describe your business, the main customer action, current problems and required integrations. Mark each feature as needed for launch or suitable for a later phase. Ask suppliers to list assumptions and exclusions.
For example, “connect the enquiry form to our CRM” should specify fields, consent information, duplicate handling and how staff will notice a failed submission. Without those details, the cheapest quote may simply describe less work.
Separate the build from running costs
Ask for hosting, domain, licences and third-party subscriptions separately. Clarify who handles updates and support, what they cost, and whether there is an ongoing commitment. DodaCraft scopes maintenance separately; it is not automatically included in the project price.
Also agree how extra requests are approved. A fixed price needs a defined scope. If the scope changes, the effect on price and timing should be agreed before the extra work begins.
How to reduce the scope sensibly
Keep a working platform where possible, reuse appropriate layouts and prepare the business information before design starts. Launch the pages and functions customers need first. Decorative additions can wait; working enquiries, usable mobile pages and agreed migration checks belong in the launch scope.
The Šypsenos akademija project kept the existing website while adding commerce and CRM connections. It is an example of limiting what changes, not a price benchmark for another business.
Questions before accepting a quote
- What exactly will be delivered, and how do we accept it?
- What must our team provide, and by when?
- Which costs recur after launch?
- What is excluded, and how are additions priced?
- Who owns the accounts and handles future changes?
If you are still deciding whether to replace the site, read redesign or rebuild first. For a scoped proposal, see website development and redesign.
