Investment — Honest starting points
We don’t sell packages, because the same package would be wrong for most businesses. What follows are real starting points, what’s always included, and — more usefully — an honest account of what moves a number up or down.
Range at a glance
Most website engagements land between $4,000 and $15,000. Products and platforms are scoped separately.

Figures are starting points, not quotes. Every engagement is scoped around your business, goals, content, and technical requirements — then priced in writing before anything begins.
What's included is agreed in writing before work starts. Changes are discussed, not invoiced quietly.
Designed and tested for phones, tablets, and desktops — not scaled down from one layout.
Technical structure, metadata, and performance so you're findable from day one.
Semantic markup, keyboard access, sensible contrast, and reduced-motion support.
A walkthrough so your team can update the site without calling us.
We're available through launch week — not gone at handoff.
If you want a lower number, the fastest levers are scope and content readiness — not cutting quality.
The number of unique page templates matters far more than the number of pages.
A one-of-one design costs less than a design drawn from scratch for you alone.
Payments, inventory, bookings, and CRM connections each add real build time.
Having copy and photography ready is the single biggest lever on both cost and timeline.
Bespoke animation is craft time. It's optional, and it's priced honestly.
Compressed schedules mean reserved capacity, which carries a premium.
Messaging and page copy written with the design, not poured in after.
Shot lists, art direction, and retouching — or a photographer we trust.
Full identity system if the website isn't the only thing that needs work.
Monthly capacity for measurement, iteration, and new pages.
Priced per project — see all services in detail.
Every engagement includes a CMS, training, and a handover, so managing the site yourself is always an option. These are for when you’d rather not — monthly, cancel whenever, and never a condition of owning your website.
$95per month
The site stays fast, current, and online.
You'll handle your own content, but you don't want to think about hosting, certificates, or updates.
Not included
$275per month
We keep it running and we make your changes.
You'd rather send us an email than open a CMS — but you don't need a growth programme.
Not included
$750per month
The site keeps getting better, measurably.
The website is a real sales channel and you want it improving every month rather than aging quietly.
Not included
Hosting, domain, and third-party subscription fees are yours directly rather than rented through us. Cancel a plan whenever you like — you keep the site, the code, and the content.
Because they'd be wrong for most people. A five-page site for a landscaper and a five-page site for a manufacturer with a product catalogue are not the same job. We price the work, not a tier name — the figures here are honest starting points.
A landing page at $900 — one page, hand-built to the same standard as everything else here. Above that, a Digital Edition at $2,400 is a genuine Silvanè design, sold once and retired, customised to your business.
We'll tell you honestly, and usually point you elsewhere — a good template on a platform like Squarespace, set up carefully, beats a stretched engagement with us. We'd rather send you away well-advised than take a project neither side enjoys.
No. Scoping calls, estimates, and the proposal are free. You only pay once there's a signed scope.
Typically 50% to reserve the schedule and 50% at launch, with larger projects split across milestones. We can discuss a schedule that works for your cash flow.
Domain and hosting fees, stock photography licences, paid ad spend, and third-party subscriptions are yours directly — we'd rather you own them than rent them through us. Copywriting and photography are available as add-ons rather than assumed.
Sharing a range doesn’t cost you leverage — it saves both of us three weeks. If the work can’t be done well at that number, we’ll say so directly.
