Platforms & technologies
Compare the cost of popular website platforms
The right platform depends on your business goals, content management needs, ecommerce complexity, team skills and long-term ownership.
WooCommerce development
WordPress-based ecommerce with flexible product catalogs and checkout. Additional plugins, shipping rules and integrations can affect cost.
Shopify store costs
Hosted ecommerce with theme, product, payment and app configuration. Platform subscriptions and paid apps are separate ongoing costs.
Webflow, Wix & Squarespace
Useful for content-first and brochure sites. Pricing depends on template changes, CMS collections, integrations and plan limitations.
Custom PHP / Laravel / Next.js
Suitable for specialized workflows, API integrations, customer dashboards and projects that outgrow conventional website builders.
SaaS & marketplace platforms
Multi-user permissions, billing, security, administration, messaging and complex business logic require more planning and development.
What affects the cost of building a website?
A useful estimate separates the type of product, technology choice, number of unique screens, content, design, integrations and launch requirements. Compare the full cost of ownership, not just the initial development fee.
Scope & page complexity
Ten straightforward service pages cost less than ten custom dashboards with role-based workflows, reporting and interactive states.
Integrations & data
CRM connections, payment systems, APIs, imports, booking calendars and custom automation can increase build and testing time.
Security & accessibility
Account security, privacy controls, accessibility testing, backups and ongoing updates should be planned from the start.
Website cost calculator FAQs
How much does a WordPress website cost?
WordPress pricing depends on the number and complexity of pages, theme customization, design, content, plugins and integrations. Use the calculator above to create a project-specific planning range.
Is Shopify cheaper than WooCommerce?
It depends on the store. Shopify has hosted subscription costs and paid apps, while WooCommerce typically involves WordPress hosting, maintenance and optional extensions. Compare both initial development and ongoing fees.
How much does it cost to build a SaaS platform?
A SaaS product typically requires more than a public website: user accounts, permissions, billing, dashboards, data models, security and ongoing maintenance. Complexity varies substantially, so calculator estimates are preliminary.
Does the estimate include hosting and a domain?
No. Hosting, domain registration, platform subscriptions, payment processing and other recurring vendor charges are separate unless a final proposal explicitly includes them.
Can I save my estimate?
Yes. Copy the full itemized estimate or use your browser's Print / Save as PDF feature. The calculator also remembers your selections locally in this browser where local storage is available.
Does requesting a proposal automatically send my information?
No. The proposal action opens your email application with a prepared message to customer@dawielabs.com. You review and send it yourself.
