One of the most common questions we get from Delhi business owners is: How much does a website cost? The honest answer is it depends. But after building 500+ websites over 14 years, we can give you real numbers.
Website Pricing in Delhi — 2026 Breakdown
| Type | What You Get | Price Range | Timeline |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic Business Site | 5 pages, mobile-ready, contact form, basic SEO | Rs.12,000-Rs.25,000 | 1-2 weeks |
| Professional Website | 10-15 pages, CMS, admin panel, advanced SEO | Rs.25,000-Rs.70,000 | 2-4 weeks |
| E-Commerce Store | Products, payment gateway, orders, inventory | Rs.45,000-Rs.1,50,000 | 4-6 weeks |
| Custom Web Application | ERP, CRM, booking system, SaaS | Rs.1,00,000-Rs.10,00,000+ | 2-6 months |
| WordPress Website | Theme-based, easy to manage, blog-ready | Rs.15,000-Rs.40,000 | 1-3 weeks |
What Affects Website Cost?
1. Number of Pages
More pages = more design, development, and content work. A 5-page brochure site costs significantly less than a 50-page service portal.
2. Custom Design vs Template
A fully custom design costs more but looks unique and builds trust. Template-based sites are cheaper but look generic.
3. CMS / Admin Panel
If you want to update your website yourself, you need a CMS. This adds Rs.8,000-Rs.25,000 to the cost but saves you money long-term.
4. E-Commerce Features
Payment gateways, product management, order tracking, and inventory add significant development time and cost.
5. SEO Requirements
Basic on-page SEO should be included in every package. Advanced SEO is a separate investment starting from Rs.10,000/month.
Red Flags — Websites Priced Too Low
If someone quotes you Rs.3,000-Rs.5,000 for a professional website, here is what you are actually getting:
- A Rs.20 WordPress theme with your logo placed on it
- No SEO, no admin panel, no custom design
- You do not own the code: if you leave, you lose everything
- No support after delivery
A low-cost website costs more in lost business than it saves upfront.
Website Cost vs ROI
A well-built website with SEO generates leads every month for years. If your website generates even 2 leads per month at Rs.20,000 average project value, that is Rs.4,80,000/year in revenue from a one-time Rs.30,000 investment.

What Affects the Price of a Website in Delhi?
Website pricing is not arbitrary — it reflects real inputs. Here's what drives cost up or down:
- Number of pages: A 5-page business site costs less than a 30-page portal. Each page requires design, development, content integration, and testing.
- Custom design vs. template: A custom-designed website (built from scratch to your brand guidelines) costs 2–3x more than a template-based site, but stands out significantly from competitors using the same ₹3,000 ThemeForest theme.
- Functionality: A contact form is simple. An appointment booking system with calendar sync, payment integration, and automated reminders is not. Every added feature adds development time.
- CMS complexity: A basic WordPress site costs less than a custom CMS built in Laravel with specific admin workflows. For most businesses, WordPress is the right choice and the most cost-effective.
- Integrations: Razorpay/Paytm payment, WhatsApp API, third-party booking systems, ERP connections — each adds development and testing time.
- SEO setup: A properly SEO-optimised website (schema markup, speed optimisation, Google Search Console setup, sitemap submission) adds ₹5,000–₹15,000 but pays back many times over in organic traffic.
Pricing Breakdown: What Each Budget Gets You in Delhi (2026)
Starter: ₹15,000–₹30,000
Template-based design, 3–5 pages, basic contact form, mobile responsive. No custom design, basic CMS. Suitable for sole proprietors and very early-stage businesses.
Business: ₹30,000–₹70,000
Semi-custom design, 7–15 pages, WordPress CMS, contact form, basic SEO setup, blog module, portfolio/gallery. The most common tier for established small businesses in Delhi.
Professional: ₹70,000–₹1,50,000
Fully custom design, 15–30 pages, advanced functionality (booking, payment, member login), full SEO optimisation, performance tuning, 3–6 months support included.
Enterprise: ₹1,50,000–₹5,00,000+
Complex portal (multi-role login, custom dashboards, API integrations, e-commerce, mobile app integration). ERP/CRM integrations. Ongoing monthly retainer for updates.
Red Flags: Why Cheap Websites Cost More in the Long Run
We regularly receive calls from Delhi business owners asking us to fix or rebuild websites they had built for ₹3,000–₹10,000. Common problems we find:
- Built on stolen or nulled premium themes (legal liability and security risk)
- No SSL certificate — Google marks it "Not Secure," killing trust and rankings
- Hosted on shared hosting so slow it fails Core Web Vitals tests
- No proper sitemap or meta tags — invisible to Google despite existing for years
- Developer has disappeared — no one knows how to make changes
- Mobile layout completely broken on modern phones
The cost of fixing or rebuilding these websites is almost always higher than building it properly the first time. A website built for ₹5,000 typically costs ₹25,000–₹60,000 to rebuild correctly 2–3 years later.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does a cheaper website save money in the long run?
Almost never. A ₹5,000 website built on a template with no SEO foundation generates zero organic traffic. Every lead requires paid advertising. Over 2 years, you'll spend far more on ads than you saved on the website. A ₹50,000 website with proper SEO setup often pays back within 3–6 months through organic leads.
Do I need hosting separately, or is it included?
Most professional web development companies either include hosting in the first year or recommend a specific hosting provider. Good business website hosting costs ₹3,000–₹8,000/year. Avoid ₹500/year shared hosting — the speed limitations will hurt both user experience and Google rankings.
How long does it take to build a website in Delhi?
3–5 weeks for a standard business website (7–15 pages). 6–10 weeks for e-commerce or feature-rich websites. Custom portals take 10–20 weeks. Your primary role is providing content, images, feedback, and approvals — the faster you respond, the faster the project moves.
What's the difference between a website and a landing page?
A website has multiple pages covering all aspects of your business. A landing page is a single focused page designed to convert one specific type of visitor (e.g., someone who clicked a Google Ad for "web design company Delhi"). Landing pages convert better for advertising; full websites are better for SEO and brand credibility. Most businesses need both.
