How Much Does a Small Business Website Cost?
There's no one price for a website, because a five-page site for a local shop and a site for a bigger company are different jobs. Here's what actually drives the cost, what to ask any web designer, and how we quote.
What drives the price
How many pages
A page for each service and each town you serve is what gets you found, and it's also the biggest part of the work.
Who provides the content
If you have photos and know what you want to say, it goes faster. If we're writing it and making the graphics, that's more work.
Features
Quote forms, job applications, rental requests, menus, online ordering links, and booking all add to the build.
Ongoing care
Hosting, your domain, security, and edits after launch. Some designers charge for each of these separately.
Questions to ask any web designer
How we quote
Every site is quoted on scope. You pay once to design, build, and launch, then one monthly plan covers hosting, your domain, SSL, management, edits, and support, so there are no surprise bills. Social media management and design work are quoted separately if you want them.
The fastest way to a number: tell us what your business does, the towns you serve, and what you'd want the site to do. We'll send a quote.

Common questions
Why don't you list prices?
Because the jobs are too different. A one-page site and a site with thirty service and town pages shouldn't cost the same, so we quote each one after hearing what you need.
Is there a charge for a quote?
No. Quotes are free.
What's included in the monthly plan?
Hosting, your domain, SSL, management, edits and updates, and support. You never have to touch code.
Where are you located?
Rare Works is based in Columbia, MS and works with small businesses across South Mississippi, including Hattiesburg, Purvis, Petal, and McComb.
