How much do web design agencies charge?

Web design agencies charge between €5,000 and €150,000 for a project, and that range exists because the label covers four completely different scopes of work. A five-page brochure site is not the same as a full SaaS marketing site with a demo funnel, live pricing logic, and a gated content library. Treating them as the same purchasing decision is how founders end up with a quote they cannot evaluate.

Here is a breakdown that actually helps you compare. A simple marketing site, 5–8 pages, no custom CMS logic, built on Webflow or similar, runs €5,000–€18,000. Most responsive web design agencies in this range use templated component libraries with light customization. Fast to ship, but you will hit the ceiling the moment you need anything non-standard. A growth-stage SaaS marketing site, 10–20 pages, custom design system, multiple conversion paths, integrated CMS, runs €20,000–€55,000. This is where most of our engagements start for companies in the €1M–€10M revenue range. That budget covers strategy, positioning work upstream, design, development, and a handoff system the internal team can actually use. Enterprise or multi-product builds with custom integrations, localization, and gated portals start at €60,000 and go up from there.

The mistake I see most often is founders comparing a €12,000 quote and a €45,000 quote as if they cover the same deliverable. They usually do not. The €12,000 quote skips strategy, skips brand alignment, and skips the design system. You get a site. The €45,000 quote installs the system that makes the next 18 months of marketing, sales, and product updates coherent. That distinction matters a lot if your website, sales deck, and product UI are currently telling three different stories to the same buyer.

What drives cost more than page count

Hourly rates, where agencies bill that way: €85–€180 per hour for a senior designer in Western Europe, €150–€250 for a strategist or design director. US agencies typically run €120–€300 per hour for comparable senior work. Offshore teams run €25–€70, but coordination overhead and revision cycles often close most of that gap in real-project cost.

On a McKinsey workstream we shipped a site rebuild in six weeks because the strategy was locked before design started. Without that upstream clarity, the same project would have taken four months and three rounds of structural revisions. A responsive web design agency that quotes without asking about your ICP, positioning, and conversion goal is quoting a production job, not a strategic one. For a growth-stage company moving past founder-led GTM, the budget conversation should start with what the site needs to do, not how many pages it has. See how we think about brand positioning as the upstream input that determines whether design spend compounds or evaporates.
