How Does This Compare?

When it comes to getting a website, most service businesses end up choosing one of three paths. Click each option to see the hidden costs.

πŸ› οΈ

Build it yourself (DIY)

Using a builder like Wix or Squarespace

+

This can work well, especially at the start - but you're responsible for building it, updating it, fixing issues, and keeping it working over time.

Wix/Squarespace plan $420/yr
Domain $25/yr
Apps/extras $120–240/yr

Total cash cost

$565–685/yr

At 4 hours/month managing, updating, and fixing issues Γ— $60/hour (your billable rate):

Time cost per year

$2,880/yr

Real total: $3,445–3,565/yr

πŸ’°

Pay upfront for a custom site

One large upfront cost, then ongoing maintenance

+

A larger one-off cost to have it built for you. In many cases, you still end up managing updates yourself or paying extra each time something needs changing.

πŸ’° Typical costs:

Initial build $2,000–5,000+
Hosting & domain $200/yr
Updates/changes $100–300 per change

Year 1 cost

$2,500–6,000+

Then $500–1,200/yr ongoing

⚠️ Hidden time cost:

Even with a custom site, coordinating changes, explaining updates, and managing the relationship takes ~2 hours/month:

Time cost per year

$1,440/yr
