Pricing FAQ
How much does a custom website cost from Designer Digital?
Projects start at $297 CAD for a tightly scoped, hand-coded landing page. Full custom marketing sites typically run $5,000–$50,000 CAD depending on page count, animation depth, integrations, and whether brand identity work is included. Custom e-commerce storefronts start higher because the integration scope is larger — typically $15,000–$75,000 CAD. Every quote is fixed-fee, not hourly, and itemized so you can see what each component costs.
