What does a custom company website cost?

A realistic framework for cost, scope, and the first release of a custom website — before design and development begin.

Website cost is not set by a page count on paper. It is set by what the site has to do: which content needs to be managed, which systems it connects to, and how custom the experience should be. That is why a precise price without a defined scope is rarely credible.

Where we start

At Novamedia a custom company website starts at 80 hours, or ISK 1,430,400 excluding VAT at our hourly rate of ISK 17,880. That can include discovery, content architecture, custom design of key pages, a custom frontend in Next.js or Vue, a headless CMS, forms, technical SEO, and analytics.

What moves the price most

  • How many pages, languages, and content types need to be designed and built.
  • Whether staff should update the content themselves in a CMS.
  • Integrations with accounting, CRM, booking, or inventory systems.
  • Checkout, login, or other behaviour beyond a brochure site.
  • Data import and how much content work is included.

Operations start when the site goes live

A site that has to serve the business needs monitoring, releases, and room for change. That is why we offer both a one-off delivery and a 24-month partnership where the first release and ongoing work are planned together. Final scope is always confirmed in writing before work starts.
