Website development is one of the most important investments for any business in the digital age. But how do you choose the right approach, what technology to use, and how much should you expect to pay? In this guide we cover everything you need to know for 2025.
Types of Websites and Their Prices
Different types of websites have very different prices and requirements:
Brochure / Presentation Website

Which Technology to Choose?
Next.js + React (recommended for 2025)
Next.js is the leading choice for modern websites. Benefits:
- Exceptional performance — scores above 95/100 in Google PageSpeed
- SEO optimization — server-side rendering for maximum visibility
- Scalability — grows with your business without limitations
- Security — no vulnerabilities typical of WordPress
WordPress
Suitable for simple sites with limited budgets. Downsides: slow, hard to scale, frequent target for hackers.
Wix / Squarespace
For very small projects without developers, but with many growth limitations.
The Development Process
A typical project goes through these stages:
- Requirements & Strategy (1-2 weeks) — Define goals, structure, and features
- Design (2-3 weeks) — Wireframes and visual design in Figma
- Development (4-8 weeks) — Code, integrations, testing
- Content & SEO (1-2 weeks) — Copy, images, meta tags
- Launch (1 week) — Hosting, domain, SSL, final review
What Affects the Price?
- Number of pages — more pages = more work
- Custom design vs ready-made templates
- Integrations — payments, CRM, email marketing
- Multilingual support
- Content — whether you provide it or the agency writes it
- Post-launch maintenance
Questions to Ask the Agency
Before signing a contract, ask:
- What technologies do you use and why?
- Will I have access to the code?
- How will the site look on mobile devices?
- Is SEO optimization included?
- What happens after launch — maintenance?
- Can they show you real projects with results?
