One of the most common questions we get at TechNoma is: "How much will it cost to build my business website?" The honest answer is — it depends. But that's not helpful, so let's break it down clearly.
The 3 Main Cost Tiers
Most business websites in Nepal fall into one of three categories. Here's what you can realistically expect to pay:
1. Basic Website — Rs. 15,000 to Rs. 25,000
A simple 4-5 page website for small businesses. Includes home, about, services, contact pages. Mobile-friendly, basic contact form, SSL security. Perfect for a small shop, consultant, or local service business that just needs an online presence.
2. Business Website — Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 50,000
A custom-designed website with up to 10 pages, SEO setup, Google My Business integration, blog section, and better support. Suitable for established businesses that want to look professional and start ranking on Google.
3. Premium / E-commerce — Rs. 50,000+
Custom design with advanced features — online store, booking system, customer accounts, payment gateway, full SEO. The right choice for businesses serious about selling online or managing complex workflows.
What About Ongoing Costs?
The setup fee isn't the only thing you'll pay. Here are the recurring costs every website has:
- Domain name: Rs. 1,500 – 2,500 per year (.com, .net, .com.np)
- Hosting: Rs. 8,000 – 15,000 per year depending on traffic and features
- SSL certificate: Usually included free with hosting
- Maintenance & updates: Optional, but recommended for security
What Affects the Price?
If a quote seems higher or lower than expected, it's usually because of one of these factors:
- Number of pages — more pages = more work
- Custom vs template design — custom always costs more
- Special features — booking systems, payment gateways, multi-language support
- SEO depth — basic SEO vs full SEO strategy
- Ongoing support — 1 month vs 6 months vs lifetime
Hidden Costs to Watch Out For
Some providers quote a low setup fee but charge extra for things that should be included. Always ask:
- Is SSL included?
- Is the design fully responsive (mobile-friendly)?
- How many revisions are included?
- What happens after launch — is support included?
- Do I own the website, or is it locked to your platform?
