// WHAT IT COSTS
How much does a tradie website cost?
A tradie website costs $500 to $2,000 from a freelancer and $3,000 to $10,000 or more from an agency in Australia. Web Blend builds custom tradie websites from $2,800 + GST, with hosting and care included. Here is what moves the number.
// THE RANGES
Tradie website prices in Australia
The spread comes down to who builds it and what the quote leaves out.
On WordPress, the build is the small number. Hosting, plugins and maintenance make up the rest. The full breakdown is in WordPress websites for tradies: the honest guide.
// WHAT MOVES IT
What moves the price
Two quotes for the same trade can sit thousands apart. It is usually one of these four.
01 / Pages
Number of pages
One page that makes the phone ring is a different job from a site with a page per service. More pages also need a menu that shows every service at once, so visitors find their job in one move.
02 / Words
Who writes the words
Cheaper quotes usually expect you to hand over finished copy. Writing a page for each job you do is real work, and it is the part that tells a customer they found the right business.
03 / Build
Custom or template
A template is quick to set up. A custom build is designed around your trade and loads faster. A template also tends to look like every other business that bought it.
04 / After launch
Hosting and upkeep
Some quotes include them. Others add a hosting bill, plugin renewals and a maintenance retainer after launch. Ask what the site costs in year two, not just what the build costs.

// QUESTIONS
Straight answers before you ask
Want to know what your site would actually cost? Ask us directly and we'll give you one number, no jargon, no pressure.
Get in touchDo I pay for a website once or monthly?
It depends on how it is built. A custom site is usually a one-off build cost. Watch for page-builder setups that charge a monthly fee just to keep the site online.
Does the price include hosting?
Ask before you sign, because some quotes bill hosting separately. Web Blend websites start from $2,800 + GST with hosting and care included, so there is no second bill to chase.
Is a cheap website worth it?
Only if it brings in work. A slow template site that nobody finds costs you jobs, then costs you again when you rebuild it properly.
Can I update the website myself?
Yes. We can set your site up so you change text, photos and prices yourself. If you would rather we handle changes, we do that too.
