Website design cost in Chennai
The build price is the part everyone quotes. The yearly running cost is the part that surprises people twelve months later. Both are on this page.
Short answer
₹9,000 – ₹45,000
To build. Plus roughly ₹5,000 a year to keep it online.
What each price band gets you
Including the bands I don't offer, so you can see where my rates sit.
The yearly running cost
These are paid to third parties, in your own name, not to me. Budget for them from year one — a site that lapses because a renewal was missed costs far more to recover.
Typical total for a small business site: ₹4,000 – ₹8,000 a year.
Six things that move the price
-
Page count
The obvious one, and the least important. Five well-built pages beat fifteen thin ones.
-
Who writes the content
The single biggest cause of both delays and extra cost. If you supply text and photos, the price holds.
-
Product count
Fifty products is a catalogue. Five hundred with variants is a data project before it is a design one.
-
Integrations
Payment gateway, courier API, CRM or booking system — each one adds setup and testing time.
-
Custom design vs template
A tuned template is faster and cheaper. A design drawn from scratch costs more and looks like nobody else.
-
Languages
A Tamil version is a second set of pages to build, test and maintain, not a toggle.
