💰 What Does Building A Website Really Cost?

Building a website isn’t a one-size-fits-all deal. Costs vary depending on complexity, features, and who builds it.

Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect:

1) DIY Website Builders (R1,000 - R5,000/year)

  • Platforms like Wix, Squarespace, or WordPress starter templates.

  • ✅ Low upfront cost, but a steep learning curve depending on your tech skills.

  • ✅ Works best for personal projects or small startups on a tight budget.

2) Semi-Custom WordPress or Shopify Sites (R10,000 - R30,000+)

  • Built with a professional template, customized to fit your brand.

  • ✅ A polished, professional look without the high price tag.

  • ✅ Ideal for small to medium businesses ready to level up online.

3) Fully Custom Builds (R50,000 - R200,000+)

  • Designed from scratch using frameworks like React or custom WordPress.

  • ✅ Unique design, advanced features, and future-proof scalability.

  • ✅ Perfect for businesses that want to stand out and grow big.

🔄 Ongoing Costs to Keep in Mind

  • 🌐 Domain: R150 – R300/year

  • 💻 Hosting: R1,000 – R6,000/year (depends on speed & reliability)

🌐 How Much Is Hosting & Maintenance?

A great website isn’t just about the launch – it needs care to stay up-to-date, fast, secure, and reliable.

At fivefiftyfive.io, we make sure your site keeps performing long after it goes live.

💻 Hosting (R1,000 – R6,000/year)

  • Fast, reliable servers so your site loads quickly.

  • Scalable options as your traffic grows.

  • Regular monitoring to minimize downtime.

🔧 Maintenance (from a few hundred rand/month)

  • Security updates: Keep your site safe from hacks.

  • Plugin management: Stay up to date without breaking things.

  • Backups: Automated daily or weekly backups for peace of mind.

  • Support: Quick help if something goes wrong.

Why it matters

Without proper hosting and maintenance, even the best-built site can slow down, break, or become vulnerable to attacks. Think of it as insurance for your digital storefront – small monthly costs that save you big headaches later.

👉 With fivefiftyfive.io, you don’t have to worry about the tech – we’ve got it covered.
